The role of operational due diligence in today’s fundraising environment

Related Topics

Operational due diligence (ODD) is an integral part of winning institutional investment allocations. Being aware of the current focus areas and what is on the horizon is key to preparing your organisation. 

On 14 September, Michael Merrigan from Shadmoor Advisors sat down with Frank Napolitani, Director at EisnerAmper, to discuss what managers can expect when undergoing operational due diligence. He discussed best and worst practices, the popularity of mock SEC exams, what to expect from an onsite ODD visit, the perceived increased risk of allocating to an emerging manager and how fund managers should address this.

Some of the key points addressed in the webinar included:

  • What are three key traits of high quality ODD?
  • What are the biggest red flags with managers during the ODD process?
  • What are some absolute “deal killers” by a fund manager during the ODD process?
  • In advance of an ODD meeting, what deliverables are required to deliver?
  • The suitability of service providers and how they factor into the ODD process.
  • How legal/compliance affects emerging, maturing, large fund managers.
