Europe Intelligence & Risk Advisory
Intelligence and risk advisory for organizations operating in, investing in, or entering European markets. Built on direct operational experience across European theaters — including intelligence liaison, counterintelligence, and transatlantic security cooperation.
Europe presents a complex and evolving risk landscape. Geopolitical realignment, energy security concerns, divergent regulatory frameworks, and an increasingly sophisticated sanctions architecture create an environment where conventional due diligence and risk assessment consistently fail to capture material exposure.
Intelligence-Grade European Advisory
Europe's commercial and regulatory landscape is among the most complex globally. Divergent regulatory frameworks across EU member states, evolving sanctions regimes, post-Brexit jurisdictional complexity, and the intersection of geopolitics with commercial activity create an environment where conventional due diligence consistently fails to identify material risk.
Our operational experience across European theaters — including intelligence liaison, counterintelligence, and transatlantic security cooperation — provides the networks, institutional knowledge, and analytical framework that effective advisory in Europe demands.

Services in Europe
Every engagement is tailored to the client's specific requirements, jurisdictional complexity, and risk profile within the region.
Enhanced Due Diligence
Decision-grade due diligence for transactions, partnerships, and investments across European jurisdictions. We navigate complex corporate structures, beneficial ownership opacity, and regulatory environments where reliable intelligence requires tradecraft and established networks — not database aggregation.
Geopolitical & Political Risk
Assessments of political stability, regulatory trajectory, sanctions exposure, and security dynamics across European markets. Designed for investors, corporations, and legal teams operating in a region where geopolitical realignment, energy security, and regulatory divergence are reshaping risk profiles.
Market Entry & Investment Risk
Intelligence support for capital deployment and market entry across European jurisdictions. Partner and counterparty vetting, regulatory risk analysis, and ongoing monitoring for organizations navigating the EU's evolving regulatory landscape and post-Brexit commercial environment.
Sanctions & Regulatory Compliance Risk
Analysis of sanctions exposure, anti-money laundering compliance, and regulatory risk across European jurisdictions. Essential for organizations where sanctions entanglement, GDPR violations, or regulatory missteps carry severe reputational and financial consequences.
Investigative & Litigation Support
Complex investigative support, asset tracing, and litigation intelligence across European jurisdictions. Our work is structured for legal proceedings and regulatory submissions, conducted with the discretion and methodological rigor these engagements demand.
Security Risk Assessments
Physical security evaluations for facilities, personnel, and operations across Europe. Executive security advisory, travel risk assessments, and crisis preparedness for organizations with European exposure in an increasingly complex security environment.
