Global Investment Partners (GIP), a prominent investment bank handling over $50 billion in transactions annually, revolutionized their due diligence process through AI-powered document analysis. Their journey showcases how intelligent automation can transform complex financial services workflows.
The Due Diligence Challenge
Investment banking due diligence traditionally demanded extensive manual document review, creating significant bottlenecks in deal processing. David Chang, Head of M&A at GIP, reflects: “Our analysts were spending 70% of their time reviewing and organizing documents instead of performing valuable financial analysis. We needed a solution to optimize this process.”
Critical Process Bottlenecks
The bank faced several challenges in their due diligence workflow:
- Due diligence for mid-size deals took 6-8 weeks
- Teams spent 300+ hours per deal on document review
