Enhanced Due Diligence

Engaging in a business relationship with an organization or individual without a full understanding of their business dealings, past or present, can pose significant risks, including both regulatory and reputational risk for partial/non-compliance. Organizations are moving from traditional due diligence, which is focused more on data gathering, to insights-driven due diligence that can identify key issues relating to sanction exposure, bribery and corruption, tax abuse, money laundering, financial crimes and in some cases non-financial crimes (e.g. ESG, corporate governance, etc).
