When you’re facing an investigation, allegation or crisis it’s essential to get to the crucial facts as quickly as possible. But these events typically come out of the blue, catching the organization unawares. We are here to support you at every stage, from identifying, extracting and analyzing relevant data, to making sure that you never face the same emergency again.
Transparency means more investigations
Businesses worldwide are under increasing pressure to demonstrate high ethicalstandards and to meet stakeholder demands for transparency. Investigations, whether mandated by regulators or instigated internally, are on the rise as a result.
A range of diverse events and crises can warrant a thorough investigation, including:
- A whistleblower report or tip off
- Suspected fraud or misconduct
- The loss of sensitive data or intellectual property
- Notification of a regular query or investigation
- Missed non-performance targets
Dealing with these events effectively takes time, effort and investment. Allegations must be investigated thoroughly, discreetly and quickly, with the minimum disruption to the business – requiring skills that typically go beyond a business’s internal capabilities. But we are here to help.
