For a long time, due diligence in M&A transactions was performed in the person of the buyer. A group of auditors would show up at the company and sit down on tables to diligently go over file after file of financial documentation for days. It was crucial that they were physically present since a misstep in the process could cause serious legal and/or representational damage.
Virtual data rooms are an advanced alternative to physical data rooms. The software provides a secure repository for storing the files and documents that are required to complete a transaction. It makes it easy to collaborate and sharing. This makes the process more efficient for everyone involved. Virtual data rooms are typically used for M&A transactions. However, they can also be used to raise funds and joint ventures.
Virtual data room providers are drawn to London by the growing legal and financial industries. These companies can take advantage of the rising demand for data management in this industry by targeting companies that are seeking to expand. However, the market is highly competitive and new companies face fierce competition and a high cost for employees.
