Virtual data rooms (VDRs) have become the norm in the due diligence stage in most M&A transactions, replacing the traditional paper-based data rooms. In the last two years, the use of VDRs has expanded dramatically, both in the M&A process and beyond. This shift in the role of VDRs is driven by the positive experiences that advisers and clients have had with the convenience, simplicity, and functionality of VDRs, as well as the satisfaction and trust in the level of service provided by VDR specialists.
In this blog post, we will explore the expanding use of VDRs in different areas of the corporate world, including Private Equity/Venture Capital Funds, Hedge Funds, IPO Transactions, Restructuring (Bankruptcy), Health, and Corporate Repository.

Virtual Data Rooms In China (It's IPO!)

Leak Leak, calls with Press in a Virtual Data Room?
27-Sep-2010 02:48:16 / by Francisco Lorca posted in M&A News, IPO, FSA
In a recently published Market Watch report (read full report here) the FSA published its findings after 3 years of research on market leaks with recommendations to deal with communications with the media during a transaction. Among other things, they include recording all calls and documenting any email exchanges with the media.
Our Data Room can currently capture all the written communication between parties in a transaction in our Q&A module. In a very recent large transaction that just closed using our virtual data room, our client posted recorded conference calls and recorded audio and video management presentations.
It would not be a big surprise if in the near future all communication with outsiders (including the press) is kept in a VDR.
Very interesting parallel with the recently implement SEC´s Rule 17g-5 regarding securitization which among other things requires all communications between issuers of the securitized instruments and credit agencies to be recorded and kept in a password protected site accessible to other agencies.

Congratulations to a dataroom competitor (Intralinks)

Congratulations to Intralinks on its IPO. Intralinks has been one of our main competitors in most markets for almost ten years.
As Bloomber covered last week, the capital raised was mainly to fund the partial repayment of the debt it took in 2007.
This is a very significant event for the industry, congratulations!
When should you use a Virtual Data Room
20-Apr-2010 16:36:18 / by Francisco Lorca posted in M&A, ethosdata, due diligence, virtual data room, IPO, Uncategorized, Hedge Fund
- Preparing documents for a transaction, especially when documents need to be put together from different sources and shared with different parties.
- Circulating information memoranda or teasers. A good virtual data room will make the process easier and will provide valuable tracking and audit information.
- Turning around drafts of legal agreements. A good dataroom offers a very simple, secure and easy-to-use document versioning system without the expense of complex dedicated document sharing platforms.
- Conducting due diligence, as a substitute for a paper or email-based data room.
- Closing a transaction, as a substitute for hard copy deal bibles. Very useful when reps and warranties are a key component of the transaction.
