Important Notes
重要提示
- IC memos should be factual and balanced — present both bull and bear cases honestly
- Don't minimize risks. IC members will find them anyway; credibility matters
- Use the firm's standard memo template if the user provides one
- Financial tables should tie — check that EBITDA bridges, S&U balances, and returns math is consistent
- Ask for missing inputs rather than making assumptions on deal terms or returns
- IC备忘录应客观公正——如实呈现乐观和悲观两种情况
- 不要低估风险。投资委员会成员终究会发现这些风险,可信度至关重要
- 若用户提供公司标准备忘录模板,请使用该模板
- 财务表格需保持数据一致——检查EBITDA调整表、资金来源与用途平衡表及收益计算逻辑的一致性
- 若缺少交易条款或收益相关输入信息,请主动询问,切勿自行假设
