Virtual data rooms are online repositories where you can safely share private documents beyond your firewall. The documents could include legal agreements, contracts and any other confidential documents created by your business or company. When sharing these documents, it is critical that the process of sharing documents be simple and easy for all parties involved. This means that the file structure is well-organized and numbered, the search function is effective and all documents is easily accessible.

Additionally, the capability to delete sensitive information in bulk helps ensure that confidential information isn’t shared in error, or that the wrong parties receive privileged access to your data. This is especially important during due diligence processes which are when potential investors or buyers will require access to your company’s details in the M&A process. It is therefore essential that your investment banking vs sales and trading VDR provider has this functionality. Lastly, it’s also important that your VDR solution is able to meet the specific needs of your industry and/or region.
