executing due diligence. Following are some of the project
descriptions related to due diligence.

One of our clients wanted to invest several million dollars
in a Chinese fiberglass company. Before the investment was made,
the client was deeply interested in minimizing as much risk as possible.
Responding to this client’s needs, the E-Composites team helped
the client with a key strategic decision whereby the main objectives
of the project were achieved by conducting the following analysis:
- Historical
and projected supply and demand analysis
- Technical
capabilities of the target firm. Comparison of
technical capabilities of the target with global
leading players
- Price
and profitability analysis. Cost competitiveness of
the target as compared to leading players
- Competitive
analysis. Market shares of major players as compared
to the target
- Risk
assessment of the target as well as overall market.
- SWOT
analysis of the target.

potential of a particular company which supplies composite products

were to conduct an analysis that answered the following questions:

industry help establish entry barriers and increase
competitiveness?

technologies
