Market entry assessment - business restructuring - country profiling and benchmarking - competitor intelligence - due diligence - political and economic risk consulting

We combine global investigative and analytical expertise with a highly practical understanding of how businesses can navigate the challenges of working in unfamiliar markets.

Market entry assessment
Supported by our partners Oxford Economics, we help you validate and expand your understanding of the opportunities and risks new markets hold. We advise on the strategies you can employ to turn challenges to your advantage and engage with new markets productively.

Country profiling and benchmarking
When operating or considering expansion across multiple countries or regions, you need to prioritise limited resources. We help evaluate opportunities in competing markets with our global team of political, economic, regulatory and technical experts.

Competitor intelligence
Using our market leading expertise in the collection and analysis of layered information we help you understand the strengths, weaknesses, plans and intentions of competitors to maximise your advantage.

Due diligence
As well as providing intelligence and analysis on partners and critical stakeholders, we forecast risks, whenever possible, for the full duration of your investment. We can go well beyond traditional standards for due diligence through reviews of partners’ compliance, risk management and governance programmes, as part of the pre- or post-transaction process.

Political and economic risk consulting
Control Risks and Oxford Economics together offer consulting that enables your organisation to navigate political and economic risk. Covering all aspects of the investment journey, including security and reputational risk, our joint consultancy overlays geopolitical and economic scenarios to bring new insights and direction.
