Risk from partnering can negatively impact your business in big ways. Embarrassment of the company and brand can take years to bounce back from. The inability to accomplish company goals due to bad relationships can undermine great product strategy and marketing.

Partners may have compliance issues, regulatory issues, legal skeletons in the closet. They may have undeclared conflicts of interest or a bad reputation in the market. Lastly, partners who simply cannot perform as required can set operational goals back.

We can review potential partners, distributors, and suppliers for

Political exposure: Does the party have and rely on a relationship with current or potential government officials.
