ASSESSMENT DUE DILIGENCE

---

• AARON RIGHT works closely with vessel owners, buyers, banks, and investors, with a deep understanding of the potential risks involved in purchasing vessels and acquiring ship-owning companies.

• The company offers investors and buyers crucial information and technical support to determine whether the vessels they are acquiring meet their needs and if the maintenance of the ships, as well as the management systems of the operating companies, are genuinely effective.

• We collaborate with owners, sellers, financial providers, and investors throughout all stages of the investment cycle—from entry to operation to exit—providing comprehensive technical advice to minimise risks and guide their investment decisions effectively.

• Here are the services provided:

1. Ship Surveys and Inspections: Conducting thorough assessments to ensure vessels meet required standards.
2. Vessel Survey Histories: Reviewing historical data related to previous surveys to understand the vessel's condition over time.
3. Review of Maintenance Records: Analysing records to evaluate how well the vessel has been maintained.
4. Operator Management Audit: Auditing the effectiveness and efficiency of the management systems of operating companies.
5. Shipyard Inspections: Examining shipyard operations and capabilities.
6. Review of Operating Costs: Assessing the operational cost structure to identify potential savings or risks.
7. Technical Assessment of Progress: Evaluating new builds and conversions to ensure progress aligns with plans and permits the staged release of finance.

These services are designed to support informed investment decisions and risk management throughout the vessel lifecycle.
