CASE STUDY:
Minority Investment in Multiple Port Assets
BRIEF:
An infrastructure fund was looking to purchase separate port assets owned by an international seller.
ROLE OF MAX2:
Back office and IT systems of the two autonomously operating assets were to be combined post transaction closing.
Max² was engaged to conduct diligence on both assets and provide cost estimates for combining cybersecurity functions along with scoping the 100-day plan for improving overall cyber posture and compliance.
WHAT WAS DELIVERED?
Interviews with current management at each asset, document reviews, external vulnerability scanning, and benchmarking was completed to map against the acquirer’s internal standards as well as new requirements for a financial owner.
Working closely with other diligence providers conducting legal and IT operations assessments a post-closing plan was developed to support integration of the assets while meeting internal and regulatory requirements.
New cyber insurance policy requirements and potential carriers were identified.
OUTCOME:
Transaction cleared regulators and Max² was reengaged to assist with the 100-day plan.
