Our commitment to confidentiality

We understand that confidentiality is crucial in mergers and acquisitions. This applies both to the fact that a sale is under consideration (or underway) and to sensitive company information which cannot be disseminated without damaging the business.

Shield takes pride in the perfect preservation of confidential information of both these types. Our seasoned professionals are meticulous in their care with confidential matters. The fact that we are a small specialist firm provides added protection for our clients.

Careful management of confidential information includes:

• Restricting talks to a short list of serious, qualified purchasers who are known to be interested
  
  
• Requiring every purchaser to enter into a legally binding confidentiality agreement
  
  
• Drip feeding information on a "need to know" basis to allow meaningful offers to be submitted
  
  
• Not informing employees, customers and suppliers until the sale has been completed

If you have any questions about confidentiality please contact us.

You and your confidential information could not be safer than with Shield.
