What kinds of questions do you ask when you talk to the CEO? Just ask them about their viewpoint for the next 5-10 years of where the business is going, or do you have specific go-to questions?
Banked deals: CIM and market study with market size, trends, etc. Call with management if it's remotely interesting but I'm at a sector-focused fund so we know relatively quickly.
Proprietary deals: Overview presentation, financial model, industry reports and hour+ call with management / seller.
