Description The subject of the study is a set of theoretical, methodological principles for the implementation of the due
diligence procedure as an audit service in Ukraine. The methodological basis of the study is general scientific and
special methods of cognition. There was clarified the concept of due diligence as audit service using the methods
of theoretical generalization, comparison of the accounting, and due diligence by the method of comparison. The
peculiarities, current problems, and obstacles of the development of due diligence in Ukraine are determined with
the help of the abstract-logical method and structural-logical analysis. The objective of the study is to consider
the essence of the concept of due diligence as an audit service, to identify the main obstacles, and to formulate
prospects for its development in Ukraine. In Ukraine, the due diligence is equated to a legal audit. However, the
concept of the legal audit is much narrower and characterizes the legal expertise of the company’s compliance with
the requirements of the law. As a result of the study, it was found that due diligence is a procedure for conducting
a comprehensive examination of an investment agreement in the framework of making a decision on effective
capital investment by minimizing risks in order to preserve this capital and its potential future increase. It is
proved that it is expedient to involve specialists of different professional orientations such as appraisers, lawyers,
financiers, project managers, and crisis managers for the implementation of due diligence. The task team can
include economists, engineers, security specialists and other experts. Varieties of due diligence are considered and
its differences from the traditional audit are determined. It is substantiated that when improving the method of
due diligence, it is necessary to understand its difference with the audit. The role of the due diligence procedure
in the conclusion of enterprise sales contract is determined, namely, the reduction of existing investment risks.
The “success” of the agreements or their “failure” is explained by the nature of the emerging synergy, and also by
the fact that enough time was spent on conducting the due diligence. The sequence and structure of the due
diligence process, as an audit service, were defined, outlining the content of its individual stages and works, which
gave an opportunity to develop the algorithm of the due diligence procedure. It is established that due diligence
is a rather new phenomenon for Ukraine, and audit and specialized companies are only at the beginning of the
path in this direction. In order to develop this type of services, it was suggested that auditors and specialized
companies expand the range of services in the direction of due diligence and the corresponding procedure for its
conduct. The cooperation of Ukrainian professional organizations with foreign professional organizations should be
developed in order to provide specialists with the possibility to obtain international certificates, as well as to involve
audit, legal, and consulting companies in the process of vocational training in the direction of due diligence. The
conclusion of the study. Thus, due diligence includes a set of measures to conduct a comprehensive examination of
an investment agreement within the framework of making a decision on effective capital investment, which involves
significant economic risks. The need for due diligence is due primarily to the fact that in today’s market relations,
the requirements of investors, banking institutions, and buyers are increased to the transparency of information
about the object of investment, lending or purchase. Due diligence as a research tool allows you to get a realistic
assessment of your business, to determine the financial position and business development trends, as a result of
obtaining information that will have a qualitative impact on effective management decisions.
