CORPORATE
RESEARCH & DUE DILIGENCE ENQUIRIES
Detailed examination of all
relevant information to support a proposed course of action,
for example a merger or new partnership, can make the
difference between the success or failure of any business
venture. There are many examples in recent years where
the lack of effective due diligence enquiries has led
to massive losses and, on occasions, charges of fraudulent
deception.
Due diligence enquiries are an integral
part of business transactions such as mergers, acquisitions,
joint ventures and new customer or vendor relationships.
Corporate research is an important tool in many business
sectors; access to better business information leads
to better, more informed business decisions.
An investigation of this type will usually
involve the detailed examination of relevant technical,
legal, financial and management issues. Examination
of other factors, such as the integrity, reputation
and reliability of major shareholders, company officers
and other key managers, may also be required.
Pinkerton's European offices are staffed
by teams of professional security practitioners, lawyers,
former police, military and intelligence officers, experienced
corporate security managers and others with relevant
experience which enables us to provide you with timely,
accurate and detailed information reports on the subject
you choose, at any location around the world. In support
of our own Pinkerton staff, we also have access to an
unrivalled network of specialist agents and consultants
who can also be deployed on your behalf if the task
requires their additional expertise.
ELECTRONIC SURVEILLANCE
COUNTER MEASURES
Electronic eavesdropping - the planting of bugs
and taps - is one of the more unsavoury growth industries
of the decade. It is easy to understand why. Information
is the key to success in the business, diplomatic and
political worlds. Unlike other assets, once information
is lost it cannot easily be retrieved or replaced.
With the intensification of global competition,
protecting confidential and proprietary information
will continue to be one of the most important aspects
of any corporate security programme.
There has been a constant stream of recorded
incidents over the past few years of listening devices
being found in the office and at home. Whilst it is
true to say that the more complex devices may cost many
hundreds of pounds or more, simple and effective radio
frequency 'bugs' can be purchased by mail order for
as little as £25.
Pinkerton Consulting and Investigations
are acknowledged leaders in the field of Electronic
Surveillance Counter measures, providing a fully professional
sweeping service to help you safeguard your sensitive
information.
