Financial and political investigation in southern Africa

Problem

An international financial services client was concerned that a major investment in which they were involved was compromised by local corruption and political interference.

Action

R2G conducted a comprehensive investigation into the investment project, reaching out to a wide range of local sources. Due to political sensitivities, considerable discretion was maintained throughout the enquiries.

Outcome

R2G enquiries unearthed significant sources of potential concern. The client was able to address these directly with local partners and mitigate a potentially damaging reputational situation.
