We can generate reports to evaluate potential investments and business partners, and meet regulatory compliance requirements.
In particular, we are specialized in all aspects of money laundering prevention and economic fraud.
However, due diligence, while being essential, is simply not enough in a competitive environment, especially the high-risk or opaque potential clients or partners. Identifying money laundering schemes in today’s world requires real expertise: mixing conventional techniques with a high-level intelligence approach is a guaranty against unexpected surprises. We do not rely on databases and computer-based sources alone. These sources are often incomplete or outdated.
As such, we conduct interviews with human sources and usually perform an onsite visit in order to analyze the facts and information to fully identify risks. These sources are often incomplete or out of date. For this reason, we conduct interviews with human sources and generally conduct an in situ visit to analyze the facts and information in order to fully identify the risks.
