Our CIS team can assist clients with one-off remediation programs or ongoing ones, through which we employ a streamlined process that integrates traditional investigative techniques with technology-driven analytics, visualisation and social media analysis to provide a cost-effective and tailored solution. This provides clients with valuable insight and information that may not otherwise be uncovered through traditional investigative means. 

Obtaining objective and detailed information on companies and individuals ahead of engaging in business with them is a key component on any risk mitigation strategy. We offer clients tailored research plans, enabling them to choose the level proportionate to the risk presented by each current or proposed relationship. 

Our professionals integrate traditional investigative and research techniques with technology-driven analytics, visualisation and social media analysis tools, and can also benefit from a global network of reliable human sources to search for red flags, conflicts of interest, undisclosed affiliations, financial difficulties, among other risks.
