What the Team is Known For

Control Risks is an internationally recognised player in the global political risk market. Beginning as a kidnap and ransom or physical security agency, Control Risks has developed into a firm with an array of intelligence-related services, including political risk. The firm has offices across the world and is well placed to provide substantive analysis of politically sensitive developments in many jurisdictions.

Strengths

"Whenever events dictate, they always respond in a timely fashion and with great care."

"Control Risks excel at understanding the commercial considerations. This has made their analysis and mitigation recommendations for political risks much more grounded."

Notable Practitioners

Charles Hecker is an experienced political risk adviser. He speaks fluent Russian and was manager of the firm's Moscow office. More recently, he served as its director of corporate investigations for Europe and Africa. "Charles presents very clearly and breaks complex geopolitical issues down into comprehensible parts."

Sorana Parvulescu is a partner in the firm's Dubai office who leads the geopolitical risk analysis team for Europe, the Middle East and Africa. She assists public and private sector organisations across a wide range of industries, helping them to manage geopolitical, security and reputational risk.
