Whether dealing with high-stakes investigations, defending against government enforcement actions or pursuing growth opportunities, success depends on calibrating risk.

And by connecting investigations and rapid crisis response with effective risk management solutions, our integrated approach helps you safeguard your business and protect corporate reputation.

Increasing focus on internal investigations into integrity incidents (discrimination, bullying, harassment, retaliation). To this end, we have set up a working group with DICO, in which Volkswagen, Allianz, adidas, Deutsche Bank, Roche and thyssenkrupp participate, led by Nicolai Behr.

Strategic focus on internal investigations related to ESG topics such as supply chains, corporate social responsibility, sustainability and the environment, complemented by various publications, presentations and global initiatives, led by Anahita Thoms.
