Investigative research, integrity due diligence and pre-employment screening

Investigative research forms a basis for the evaluation of risk in any business relationship. It facilitates informed decisions about alternative ways forward with regard to potential investments, partnerships, purchases and employment. It is also an essential tool during investigations.

Hibis has developed an extensive and international set of investigative research tools and techniques for obtaining relevant information about companies and individuals (wherever it can be legally obtained) including:

  • financial status
  • whereabouts
  • commercial involvement (in companies, organisations and ventures)
  • key stakeholders within third parties
  • background information through various media channels
  • results of prior investigations
  • criminal charges
  • court cases

Hibis’ research experience in jurisdictions often classified as tax havens is valuable for all kinds of projects within prevention, detection and investigation of fraud and corruption.

All research is carried out with respect to relevant laws and legislation, as well as our client’s internal regulations and policies.

Specialist interview techniques

Interview technique is a critical area of expertise. Hibis has developed seminars, workshops and case material on interview techniques and strategic investigation, intended for investigators, auditors and security personnel.

During workshops participants are encouraged to take active part in discussions, as well as role play and trouble shooting. Hibis’ experienced interviewers act as course leaders taking participants through realistic scenarios where they learn the pitfalls and benefits of various investigative interview strategies.
