Political Risk - Global-wide
Band 2
What the Team is Known For
PRISM is well versed in Eurasian affairs and has established expertise in providing clients with political and macro-economic analysis products, including C-suite-level briefings and weekly newsletters. Its clients include large corporates that are active in the Eurasian region, and it receives praise from sources for the quality of its human intelligence gathering.
Strengths
I see PRISM as trusted advisers, exactly what a company like ours needs through periods of heightened sensitivity, especially in the geopolitical space. It's their judgement, their insight, and the fact that they are very calm in their approach and execution. Their knowledge of the wider Eurasia region adds even more strategic importance to the work.
I am extraordinarily pleased with the work PRISM do. They have good connections within the Eurasia region, they are careful in their reporting and they provide interesting insights.
PRISM are very capable in their particular geopolitical risk issues - very, very capable. They have a long history in the area and are well known and recognised.
