Know Your Partner
We conducted a sensitive investigation and assessment of a prominent businessman, a Chinese national, who was seeking a partnership with our client, the CEO of a leading global IT firm. Based on our research, which included a character study, we provided early warning that the businessman had connections and behaviors that would pose legal and repetitional concerns. As a result the CEO decided not to engage.
We subsequently learned the businessman was later detained by the Chinese Government, which conducted its own independent investigation into his activities.
