Investment and business decisions made on inaccurate intelligence or inadequate security planning can seriously compromise your company’s strategic direction and survival. Incomplete intelligence may fail to identify possible exposure to fraud and other high-risk activities by potential employees, vendors, customers and other outside organizations.  While security plans may fail to deliver the levels of coverage required.

The Caribbean and Latin American regions provide unique challenges in the area of security and intelligence.  One of the regions most widespread problems is corruption, often triggered by under funded law enforcement departments, and a lack of organizational integrity systems.  Simplified, on too many occasions has the basic security structures been infiltrated by corruption and as such failed.

As these regions get driven deeper and deeper into debt, the social and economic systems continue to deteriorate, causing a rise in regional crime levels.  A solid example is the narcotics trade, while not as open as the eighties, still continues to be a billion dollar industry that seriously impacts the region.
