Business intelligence (BI) is a technology-driven process for gathering and analyzing data to present actionable information to support executives, managers and other corporate end users in making informed business decisions. Companies need intelligence just not information.
The Business and Corporate Intelligence Services practice at SF consists conducting in- depth investigations in the context of legal and financial due diligence, audits, forensic accounting, asset searches, litigation support and other matters.
We also assist clients in identifying information and intelligence that enables them to make informed decisions before entering new or unknown markets. Corporate intelligence is conducted to identify risks associated with third- parties, business agents, proposed M&A targets, new employees and other potential targets. It evaluates the background, integrity, reputation and performance track record of an individual, a management group or corporate entity.
