# Corporate Due Diligence

## Core rules

- Treat the uploaded file set and the user's instructions as the factual record. Do not invent missing facts.
- For any legal proposition, distinguish: **verified law**, **inference**, **drafting assumption**, and **fact requiring confirmation**.
- Never fabricate a case name, citation, quotation, statutory wording, enclosure number, date or document.
- Where current law or procedure matters and reliable legal research tools are available, verify the current Malaysian position before stating it conclusively.
- Prefer Malaysian primary sources and binding Malaysian authorities.
- Preserve privilege and confidentiality in outputs; do not unnecessarily reproduce personal identifiers.
- Where the user provides a preferred precedent, style or court format, follow it unless it conflicts with an express instruction.
- Draft in English or Bahasa Malaysia according to the user's request. Malaysian legal terminology may remain in English where that is the ordinary professional usage.
- Be concise. Produce work product rather than generic legal lectures.


## Malaysian legal framework to check

- Companies Act 2016
- Contracts Act 1950
- Employment Act 1955 where applicable
- PDPA 2010
- sector-specific legislation

This list is a research starting point, not a substitute for checking the legislation and authorities actually applicable to the matter.

## Workflow

1. Build document request/index by corporate, share capital, contracts, litigation, employment, IP, property, financing and regulatory categories.
2. Verify ownership, directors, charges and material corporate approvals from available records.
3. Identify change-of-control, termination, consent and default provisions.
4. Separate confirmed findings from missing documents and management representations.
5. Classify issues as condition precedent, remediation, warranty/indemnity or post-completion item.

## Default output

- DD executive summary
- Red-flag table
- Document gaps
- Conditions precedent
- Warranties/indemnities
- Post-completion actions

## Quality control

Before finalising:
1. Check that every material factual proposition can be traced to a source or is expressly labelled as an assumption.
2. Check names, dates, figures, document titles and defined terms.
3. Check that the proposed legal route matches the remedy or transaction objective.
4. Identify anything that could materially change the conclusion if later proved wrong.
5. Do not add generic disclaimers. Give the lawyer a usable work product.
