Forensic, Integrity & Corporate Intelligence

When you need it

An allegation, an audit finding or unexplained losses suggest that someone inside or close to the business is acting dishonestly.

What we do

• Agree the questions, reporting line and confidentiality protocol with the board or audit committee
• Preserve data, devices and records before anyone is alerted
• Test transactions, vendor masters and approvals, and trace fund flows
• Interview witnesses first, then subjects, under a documented protocol

When you need it

You need to know how much was lost, where the money went, or whether the books reflect reality.

What we do

• Transaction testing across procure-to-pay, order-to-cash and payroll
• Fund-flow tracing across bank accounts and related parties
• Loss quantification with documented assumptions
• Reconciliation of books, stock and third-party records

When you need it

What we do

• On-site or remote imaging of phones, laptops, servers and cloud accounts
• Recovery of deleted chats, calls and files
• Keyword, concept and AI-assisted review of e-mail and messages
• Timelines and link charts of people, firms and money
