Before presenting INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS PROTECTION HOLDING products in the field of private corporate investigations on our website, we looked into Google search engines with one single question - how do other companies and organisations interpret the broad term ‘corporate investigations’ today? The queries were placed in Google search in Ukrainian and English in turn: first - ‘corporate investigations’, and then - ‘corporate investigations’. And what was the result of the mini-research? Who exactly offers this service?
| Resource | Total | (Investigators) | (Polygraph examiners) | (Consultants) | (Media) | (Compliance specialists) | (Lawyers, attorneys) | Other (articles, courses, etc.) |
| Ukraine | 60 | 3 | 2 | 7 | 1 | 5 | 38 | 4 |
| International | 60 | 45 | 0 | 0 | 4 | 4 |
So, this mini-study gives a not very positive impression of what customers of corporate investigations receive as a result. In the Ukrainian market, a business that needs to identify, analyse and localise risks and growing threats should look hard for someone who will perform an internal or external corporate investigation in a high-quality and professional manner if this is promised by anyone but professional investigators. We respect the competitive environment that offers similar services to us, but Ukrainian business is increasingly aware that Western markets, taught by strong competition, have long treated private investigations as a specific and extraordinary activity and know well that they should not entrust their development to just anyone.
By the way, in the table above, where private corporate investigations are offered by international investigators, out of 45 results, we found references from long-standing partners with whom INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS PROTECTION HOLDING has been effectively cooperating for many years. Therefore, our team with many years of experience in corporate investigations is on the right track.
What is the fundamental difference between our team and competitors in terms of corporate investigations?
Firstly, the task is performed by direct specialists who know from their own experience how to assess corporate risks, how to combine their skills in collecting evidence with knowledge of business and legal practice of using various tools. Such specialists in our team are called ‘corporate investigators’.
Secondly, corporate investigators have a good understanding of what an undercover investigation is, which does not in any way affect the processes in the company or organisation under investigation.
And thirdly, our corporate investigators always know which experts to engage and when to engage them - when and how to engage a lawyer or consultant or polygraph examiner, and when to engage a compliance or external or technical surveillance specialist, etc.
The fourth and the main difference is that when our team of investigators starts performing corporate tasks, we always assess the likelihood of achieving a result: if we are confident in our expertise, we start working and guarantee a quality result, but if it cannot be achieved, we never mislead the customer, do not receive money for consultations and communicate sincerely about it.
Our doors are always open for cooperation, discussions, and quality assistance in any private investigations in most countries of the world. Come, write, call us. We are always here for you.
