Compile Core Financial Legal and Operational Records
Audit and gather all relevant company documentation including cap tables, creditor registers, contract commitments, and bank balance statements. Consolidate asset registers, IP inventories, and data compliance records needed to execute a clean termination.
Gathering these inputs establishes complete visibility over the venture's net financial, legal, and asset position. It eliminates hidden liabilities and provides the factual baseline required to draft solvent or insolvent closure documentation.
Deliver a verified repository containing updated balance sheets, full creditor and debtor listings, employee contract statuses, and intellectual property registries. Every figure must be backed by bank reconciliations or executed legal agreements.
