Risk Advisory Services

  • We liaise directly with your corporate security teams to mitigate business risk, enable safe & secure operations, and protect your P&L. We provide security risk mitigation services including threat assessments, risk analysis, scenario planning, incident reporting, pre-entry assessments, and security planning. Using all-source intelligence and insights from our extensive network on the ground, we help you effectively manage and mitigate security risks in your area of operations.

  • We understand the value of scratching beneath the surface and identifying potential red-flags related to specific stakeholders prior to engaging in business with them. Beyond generic compliance database checks, we offer enhanced due diligence services by contacting primary sources with direct knowledge of the assessed subjects or preferential access. We assess subjects along a number of different axes with a primary focus on identifying any concerns from a proceeds of crime/money laundering/terrorist financing perspective.

  • Our specialised Libya reporting division is considered the leading provider of Libya political/security analysis and reporting. Our dedicated team is able to extract information from a network of primary local sources, and English and Arabic language open sources. We offer different membership packages. We provide Libya Daily Intelligence Reports to cover the tactical/operational information needs of our clients. Our Weekly Libya Security and Political Report provides a summary of key events for the week and includes a forward-looking analysis of the situation in-country. Special Reports are produced on an ad-hoc basis to highlight a particular security or political development that may potentially have significant ramifications on Libya’s security situation. Special Reports consist of a detailed description of the event, multiple forms of data, and an in-depth analysis of the event’s ramifications on the country’s security and political forecast.

  • We are able to tailor our services to the client’s needs. We can adjust the frequency of our reports and thematic content to the client’s operations and information needs. Our reports can cover specific sectors such as oil& gas, power generation, telecommunications …etc. Reach out directly to discuss a customised solution.

  • Our teams are involved in complex multi-stakeholder projects across jurisdictions in the MENA region. Get in touch for more information.

Our Approach

We have our fingers on the pulse. Our unparalleled local information networks enable us to extract granular ground-truths and deliver actionable insights. However, we like to distinguish between what we See, Hear, and Feel.

This analytical tradecraft developed over decades of experience in the region enables us to deliver nuanced insights. We believe this is essential given the complexity and fluidity of the MENA region’s threat landscape and challenges related to misinformation/disinformation.

Our clients trust that the information we provide is reliable, has been cross-checked, fact-checked, and has undergone layers of analysis before it reaches their desks.

We prioritise what we See on the ground. With a network of over 100 primary local sources across the region, we remain committed to only covering countries and cities where we have preferential access to on-the-ground truths. This is our commitment to our clients. Whilst we understand the importance of Open-Source, we rely primarily on local sources.

When we can’t see it, we tell you what we Hear on the ground. We believe this is essential in a region where rumours may contain some truths, and vice versa. Not only do we report what is heard, but we tell you why it matters. We believe this critical step is often overlooked in our industry.

Hear.

The third and final step is our forward-looking insights. We do not have a crystal ball and cannot predict the future. However, our analysts will always give you their Feel for the collected information. We like to keep it simple by never exceeding a timeframe of 0-6 months when providing plausible scenarios to ensure we remain relevant.

Feel.
