Information and understanding are the keys to managing risks.
Our Approach
We employ a multifaceted approach that leverages a wide range of information sources, including confidential human sources (HUMINT), as well as public records and other open sources (OSINT). This approach ensures a comprehensive picture of the subject matter.
Informed decision-making
Our findings are instrumental in enabling informed decision-making. We provide our clients with business-critical information that can significantly impact their strategies and next steps.
Key Benefits
Our Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD) services are designed to provide our clients with a comprehensive and thorough assessment of individuals and entities, enabling them to identify potential risks, undisclosed information, and “red flags” that could have, legal, regulatory, financial or reputational implications.
Our due diligence services cover:
- Wealth and Source of Funds: Pinpointing the origins of wealth and funds helps our clients understand the financial background of the subject.
- Beneficial Ownership Verification: Verifying the Ultimate Beneficial Ownership (UBO) of an entity, creating transparency of ownership structures.
- Politically Exposed Persons Identification: Determining if a subject is a Politically Exposed Person (PEP), which is vital for risk assessment and compliance.
- Sanction Screening: Identifying whether a subject company or individual is subject to sanctions, ensuring compliance with international regulations.
- Link Analysis: Establishing whether an individual or entity has connections to organised criminal groups, sanctioned parties, and PEPs.
- Fraud, Corruption, and Bribery Detection: Identifying links to alleged fraud, corruption, or bribery, including violations of key anti-corruption laws like the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) and the UK Bribery Act.
