Corporate Investigations

We offer a range of bespoke investigative services to meet our clients’ needs.

Concentric’s strategic vetting program provides in-depth screening of prospective employees and contractors to mitigate potential risks, complemented by subject interviews conducted by former CIA or FBI polygraphers for candidates whose positions would give them access to sensitive information or assets.

We conduct internal investigations on issues of harassment, fraud, embezzlement, and IP theft, among others.

Concentric investigates third-party agents, partners, acquisition targets, suppliers, distributors and vendors to assess reputational risks and ensure compliance with sanctions and regulatory regimes, such as the FCPA, the UK Bribery Act, and ITAR.

Concentric’s due diligence reports cover the full range of issues and most regions of the world, giving clients the critical information they need. Our investigators zero in on the company’s risks and advantages, strengths and weaknesses, management team, and corporate culture, among other areas.

Our core services include due diligence on potential investments, helping clients gain a deeper understanding of the target company and its leadership, as well as its prospects, trends, and competitive position.

We enhance our research through in-depth interviews with sources that include former employees, competitors, industry experts, customers, and others of interest to our clients.

Concentric assists clients engaged in proxy fights by conducting due diligence on boards, management, and activists, as well as in-house counsel in responding to CFIUS reviews.

Concentric’s litigation support provides a spectrum of investigative services to assist clients before, during, and after legal proceedings get underway.

Our services include support for all forms of civil and criminal litigation, from complex commercial investigations to white collar defense investigations to international arbitration.

Concentric provides deep background dossiers on opposing parties or witnesses and suitability assessments of potential jurors.

We support clients by identifying and assessing potential expert witnesses, gathering facts to support or defend against claims – including through the surveillance of individuals or groups – and conducting extensive asset investigations, pre- and post-judgment.

Concentric’s team of investigators identifies, assesses and supports efforts to mitigate the risks posed by individuals and groups with potentially nefarious motives.

Given the heightened level of sensitivity and discretion, we work closely with our clients and provide updates on our investigations as they unfold.
