Artificial intelligence for M&A teams
In mergers and acquisitions, AI mostly helps with document volume and research: drafting a first teaser or memorandum, going through a data room, comparing contract versions, building buyer or target lists. I-Avantage helps investment banks, M&A boutiques and corporate development teams choose these uses, frame them and train their people.
Updated
Where AI can help an M&A team
- Marketing documents
- Draft a first teaser or information memorandum from material the client has validated.
- Data room review
- Sort documents, spot gaps, extract the clauses to examine and prepare questions.
- Legal documentation
- Compare successive versions of a purchase agreement or warranty schedule and flag the changes. The legal reading remains the lawyers'.
- Target and buyer research
- Structure a search from criteria, summarise profiles and prepare approaches.
- Process tracking
- Keep track of exchanges, questions and answers throughout a process.
Points to watch
- Trade secrets and inside information mean you must know where the data is processed.
- Company information drawn from generated research is checked at the source.
- Every document sent to a counterparty commits the adviser and must be reviewed.
