We Move Fast.
Approximate Timeline:
We can tell you whether we are interested in 1 day. Our strict investment criteria means only a handful of small and medium companies in Kazakhstan get into our due diligence phase. For every 100 businesses we look at, we are usually interested in only 2 or 3.
Day 1: First Contact and Meeting
Day 2-3: NDA and NDA Signing
Day 4-7: Document Request
Day 15-30: Price Discussion & Final Deal
Step 1: First Contact and Meeting
Whether you find us or we find you, our process starts with a meeting (video or in-person) to get an introduction to the business and its management. These meetings usually last 30-90 minutes.
If we believe your business meets our criteria and that we can add value to your operations, we will send over an NDA form for you to sign.
Step 2: NDA
Step 3: Document Request
After signing the NDA, we will send a document request form. This form usually includes your financial statements, management financials, contracts, top management CVs, and other necessary documents for us to do our analysis.
Step 4: Price Discussions & Final Deal
Once we have completed our due diligence, we will meet once again to discuss our valuation of the business. If discussions are successful, the final documents are signed and CL1 Partners invests.
