What Is a Company of Interest Investigation?
A professional OSINT-based corporate investigation that goes far beyond standard due diligence. We combine open-source intelligence with commercial databases and analyst expertise to uncover hidden structures, connections, and red flags.
What we examine:
Ownership Structures
Shareholders, subsidiaries, beneficial owners (actual controllers)
Management & Key Personnel
Current & historical executives, board members
Corporate Networks
Parent/subsidiary relationships, related entities
Reputational Risks
Media coverage, disputes, litigation, controversies
Data Breach Exposure
Corporate email leaks, compromised domains
Compliance Screening
Sanctions, PEP matches, insolvency & legal records
What you receive:
A structured Intelligence Report including executive summary, ownership mapping, risk assessment, and actionable recommendations.
Why Standard Due Diligence Falls Short
📊 Only registry data, no real context
Traditional checks show corporate filings — but not hidden ownership chains or offshore layers.
→ We go deeper: multi-source validation and beneficial ownership tracing across jurisdictions.
🌐 Missing international coverage
Cross-border structures and shell entities often remain invisible.
→ We provide: global reach, multilingual data sources, and verified cross-border insights.
⏳ Outdated or incomplete
Registry data misses leadership changes, past ownerships, and archived filings.
→ We use: historical databases and corporate archives to reconstruct full histories.
❌ No reputational picture
Standard due diligence ignores media and litigation data.
→ We include: reputation, compliance, and risk narratives backed by sources.
