About

Provided by Audere Group

Audere Group's Business Intelligence & Investigations unit is widely recognised for its solutions-oriented approach in identifying not only the risks in an investment but also their potential resolutions.

We find difficult-to-obtain information to help clients make informed decisions, determine commercial and legal strategies, resolve disputes, mitigate risks and maximise business opportunities when entering new markets.

Core services include strategic intelligence, enhanced due diligence, litigation support and asset tracing, supply chain risk & resilience, market entry advisory & stakeholder mapping and complex investigations. Investigations are designed toassess business track records and reputations, gain a better understanding of sources of wealth, examine ultimate beneficial ownership (UBO) and complex corporate structures, assess sanctions risk, identify political exposure or examine allegations of fraud, bribery or corruption.

Headquartered in London and operating globally, our team has been brought together for its diversity of thought and diverse backgrounds stemming from business, intelligence, government, security, finance, journalists, academia and advisory. We combine creative, strategic thinking with granular, on-the-ground expertise to make a meaningful difference to our clients’ most important commercial decisions.

Strengths

Provided by Chambers

  • Audere was able to harness not only open source but also more human knowledge sources to have a better understanding in a very opaque environment. The interaction was always professional and often we would review the wider context and cross check sources and impressions. This aspect of the relationship, which went beyond the contractual, was very helpful for management and our team.

  • In my dealings with Audere, their depth of experience and expertise has been clear. They combine pedigree with innovative and creative thinkers and achieve a trusted friend effect. Their small size means they retain a substantial degree of personality and character, which is appealing and makes the development of close working relationships feel easy.
