A major energy producer and investment group retained us to resolve their concerns on the planned acquisition of a monopoly Georgian steel works. These included doubts concerning the target’s ownership and managerial structures, as well as the background of their capital and political ties.

These we forensically analysed, putting together in an intelligence report that was ultimately presented to the client. Information and graphics showing the links to ultimate owners and tax havens brought a halt to the client´s endeavours to acquire the target, causing them to re-think their investment strategies in the country.
