Due Diligence - almost every question I have gotten has had some aspect of due diligence. It can be looking at reliance on a small percentage of suppliers/customers for a large percentage of supplies/revenue, compliance with existing laws, cross-jurisdictional information (if relevant)etc.2. Regulations - if the client is wanting to do something, are there any regulations governing that? their impact on the deal?3. Finances - does it make sense to do this financially? Are there any factors that have not been considered like import duties on something like supplies for a project type situation?4. Aim - What is the client's aim with XYZ action? is there any information that makes XYZ a non-viable option to fulfil that aim?5. Society - if its a controversial action, would there be potential backlash for the client? Is the backlash worth it? This could be environment related or something else.6. News - Is there anything you remember seeing/hearing in the news relevant to XYZ?I'm sure there is more that needs to be considered depending on the question. (I'm sorry if this doesn't make sense because this isn't a strategy I have seen elsewhere..this is just something I figured out based on patterns and tried my best to put into words)</blockquote>
