  • Client-ready deliverables: Findings are delivered in formats that integrate seamlessly into your own reporting and advisory outputs.

  1. Scoping: Define key questions and risk areas in alignment with your client’s mandate.
  2. Field research: Discreet investigations through proprietary networks, public record checks, and local sources.
