Our Services

Geopolitical Risk Audits and Advising

Similar to how standard auditing adds value by identifying financial and operational risks, geopolitical audits assess the impact of geopolitical uncertainties and events on a company’s operations, strategies, investments, and overall market presence. We collaborate closely with risk teams in companies, including chief finance officers, chief risk officers, general counsel, and board directors serving on finance, audit, and risk committees. Our goal is to identify and evaluate potential risks associated with political instability, economic sanctions, trade policies, regulatory changes, and conflicts in the company’s operating regions.

Risk Assessments and Monitoring

Private sector leaders need to assess the impact of political risks across their company’s activities to anticipate and prepare for potential disruptions. By doing so, they can reduce the impact of these risks and adjust their strategies accordingly. In addition to risk identification, proactive risk monitoring allows clients to scan the geopolitical environment, keeping track of significant changes to their organization’s risk exposure. Our analysis draws not only from our extensive diplomatic experience but also from ongoing conversations with our network of advisors. We assist clients in developing relevant indicators and warnings to anticipate challenges.

Corporate Governance for Geopolitical Risk

Effectively navigating this era of heightened geopolitical complexity involves designing and implementing strategies that account for geopolitics. This means integrating political risk management into broader risk management, strategy, and governance. At our firm, we assist in embedding geopolitical risk analysis into your corporate DNA, making it an integral part of your strategy, operations, and management. Our goal is to help clients build the right strategies, tools, and processes.

Real World Geopolitical Risk Experience

Many consulting firms claim experience in geopolitics risk analysis, but our work is rooted in decades of experience across defense, diplomacy, and intelligence fields. We translate cutting edge techniques from the international security community into insights that matter for private sector sensibilities.

Strategy and Strategic Planning

Our ability to help our clients is based on a firm foundation of strategic consulting for consequential public and private sector clients. Our strategic development processes arm companies with a clearer understanding of geopolitical risks, allowing leaders to make more informed strategic decisions - especially around market entry, expansion, divestment, and supply chain restructuring.

Research and Analysis

Geopolitical risk is an interdisciplinary approach that is art and science, theory and practice. We utilize a vast array of quantitative and qualitative methodologies, rooted at the highest levels in multiple fields, from political science, economics, security studies, organizational theory and management, to make sense of our dynamic world. We are experts in all matters of geopolitics, geoeconomics intelligence analysis, strategic planning, and global security

Global & Regional Experience

As our world grapples with the new normal of international affairs, expertise on global issues, as well as key regions of the world, is imperative. We very clearly identify not just the "what" of geopolitical developments but also, for each client, the specific "why it matters" and suggestions on the "what to do". In today's rapidly changing world, savvy investors -whether they be pension funds, hedge funds, insurance companies, investment banks, private equity investors or family offices - are including global and regional assessments of geopolitical risks in their operational due diligence checklists.
