the PROCESS is based on four key principals

clear objective

Our process is a precise definition of objectives and parameters. Leaf supports our sponsors in defining project terms of reference and other parameters as closely and carefully as possible.

scientific method

We document the existing situation, define the investment objectives, and then model the effects of the investment, competencies, and capacities of the sponsor or investment in question.

objectivity approch

Our role is to provide an unbiased, professional opinion which is supported by evidence. Our reporting must be clear of bias or the influence of special interests. Where the difference of professional opinion is found, we express these clearly

confidential mandate

We take a full range of precautions to safeguard the integrity of client data. These included integrated data and document security and control policies. We offer encrypted communications and data storage facilities and can comply with most corporate systems in this area.

our due diligence methodology

We examine external analysis of information and extrapolate key data points from Macro to Micro.

This research has already been compiled, gathered, organized and published by others. It includes reports and studies by government agencies, trade associations or other businesses in your industry

This involves a series of structured interviews, factory or work observation, site visits or other primary research activities, i.e. those activities implemented by our consulting team.

This involves a detailed assessment of risks, which are typically described in terms of the likelihood of occurance, the trigger event, the magnitude of impact, and their measurable impact on the investment model.

A core part of the due diligence study is the modeling process. This can include modeling of key sensitivities in a business plan, for instance, or development of a decision tree for mapping future investment decisions. This is a core part of our methodology, and we have developed some highly effective processes based on project experience.
