Competitive and strategic intelligence
We work with tools that facilitate a global vision not only of what is happening in your environment, but especially of what is going to happen; thus improving your ability to react and helping you to be more competitive.
The competitive intelligence approach (Business Intelligence) is based on the location, segmentation and analysis of information along with the knowledge of the industry and the background of our professional experience. Intelligence encompasses information about individuals, companies, countries and markets. This information can refer to any business situation that needs a strategic decision. Analysis reports let you know what the competition is doing, its updated prices in different markets, specific products or services. It also provides other information, discreet and confidential, about the different instances of the business: What risk do my potential new partners represent? What suppliers can put my business at risk? Who are the potential competitors in a given market? What market share will I earn with the acquisition of a specific company? What are the affinity groups of that company? What is the government regulation that affects me as a company? What kind of political risks is my business exposed to?

How do we do it?
Studies on Competition and the Market
The most important decisions are made knowing in depth the weaknesses and strengths of competition, the potential risks of the market and the environment and identifying: The main source of income; the cost structure; the operation of the operational structure and processes; the key indicators of market gaps. Our audits and evaluations are aimed at the detection of vulnerabilities, the evaluation of procedures, internal controls, internal reporting systems and all those elements that ensure regulatory compliance. The result is the contribution of main recommendations that facilitate compliance and development of surveillance programs according to current regulations: • Evaluation and Design of Anti-Money Laundering Programs (AML-CFT) • Compliance Review and regulatory implementation • Development of External Audits and Training • Due Diligence - Know Your Customer Program
Cross-Competition Analysis
We use a strategic form to predict the movements of our clients' competitors. We analyze the important changes in the industries, we explore the nuances in the business of the competitors; We evaluate competitors, customers and partners, as well as the cycles of demand for products and services.
Transactional Risk
The failure of an operation is costly, so Due Diligence in acquisitions, investments or joint-ventures provide: Information on compliance, transparency; reliability of the guarantees; business culture compatibility; management integrity; valuation of internal power groups; communication channels; and balance of cash flows and income.
Competitive Benchmarking
We put into practice a framework to evaluate the competitive cost of operations, to analyze the capabilities of a rival and its probable actions in the future. We establish benchmarks on the practices and costs of rival companies. We help our customers prepare for the launch by the competition of new products. We can also develop alert methods to monitor competition, its services, products and market positioning. Our Competitive Benchmarking services allow our clients to better understand the competitive threats they face.
Analysis of the value chain
Our analysis of the costs of procedures (for example, the procedures to complete a sale), allow our clients to understand their competitive advantages and disadvantages. We evaluate cost factors that affect competitive positioning, identify the competitive advantages that are sustainable, and reveal the fundamental differences in the activities of our customers and their competitors.
Reputational Risk
Damage to reputation can have serious consequences, from loss of turnover to loss of financial partners or even loss of opportunities in new markets. A professional investigation provides information on: Illegal business practices or diversions; matters of a confusing nature; adverse situations caused by disinformation processes; defamatory coverage by the media. This information enables strategic benefits: It uncovers the reality hidden behind false perceptions and refutes falsehoods; allows to formulate response strategies and evaluate the implementation of preventive measures; and restores the confidence of shareholders, regulators, media and the general public.
