Michael Merrigan On Operational Due Diligence

Michael Merrigan officially starts season one of Operational Leaders with a discussion on operational due diligence. Michael is a rising star in the business with 20 years of experience and the founder of Shadmoor Advisors, an independent ODD consulting firm he established in 2014.

Michael covers a broad range of topics including a discussion about the evolution of ODD from operations to a more wholistic review of enterprise risk. He also provides his view on the ODD evaluation deliverable – an assessment of risks and related market color which individual investors should then use to make their own investment determinations. Michael also notes that some managers can underestimate how several smaller risks can prove more problematic than one large risk.
