Compliance Advisory, Risk Assessment & Bespoke
Investigative Due Diligence
IPSA has a 20 year history of successfully completing complex multi-
jurisdictional investigations. Assignments include large-scale criminal, white
collar and financial investigations for multinational corporations, financial
institutions and law firms.

2. Emerging Economies Due Diligence
Our emerging economies DD group offers industry recognized investigators, research
capabilities in 20 languages and an established, reliable network of resources in over
75 countries.
Our team understands that conducting due diligence in emerging economies involves
a myriad of challenges which require advanced solutions carried out by senior
investigators.
We deliver proven expertise and methodologies to ensure our clients receive on-the-
ground intelligence required to properly assess commercial opportunities and
mitigate risks.
Due to the volume of requests from our clients, we excel in the following countries:
Russia, Ukraine and Kazakhstan in the Former Soviet Union; Argentina, Brazil, Chile,
Colombia, Peru, Venezuela and Mexico in Latin America; China and Taiwan in Asia;
Nigeria in Africa; and UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and Egypt in the Middle East.

3. Bespoke Due Diligence
Bespoke DD provides significant financial and reputational value as it delivers
critical information required by our clients to make the right decisions.
Based on a review of cases we have conducted over the last decade, bespoke
or ‘boots-on-the-ground’ due diligence generally uncovers 20% more
information than electronic checks.
Intelligence uncovered through bespoke DD can make the difference between
‘getting it right’ and the risk of ‘getting it wrong’ through over reliance on
electronic checks.
The 20% additional information is often critical to decision making, risk
mitigation and regulatory compliance.
