"I would like to thank the BDO team for advising the Matrix and UKPD shareholders on this transaction. BDO delivered an outstanding professional service throughout the process utilising their specialist skills and experience. The management and control of the process has been excellent and I would have no hesitation in recommending BDO to anyone considering selling their business or seeking investment as we have. BDO’s vendor due diligence report was a thorough piece of work that demonstrated a strong understanding of the business and the key commercial considerations. The performance of the whole BDO team underlines their ability to understand, interpret and clearly present complex business issues in a professional manner, often responding to challenging reporting deadlines. Their thorough and proactive approach enabled us to work closely with them throughout the transaction process and their input was invaluable in delivering the transaction”.
