Control Risks.

In the mid-1970s international business executives had become the target of kidnappers in parts of South America.

The insurance industry sought more professional advisers to minimise their exposure, so Control Risks was born.

Increasing globalisation and complexity is driving the demand for advice and practical assistance in difficult business environments.

Control risks offer a range of services addressing political, security and integrity risk challenges facing companies competing in a globalised but volatile world..

Control Risks now work from 34 offices on 5 continents, enabling its clients to operate in a range of hostile or complex business environments. The company has an outstanding client list including many of the world’s leading corporations, governments and non-governmental organisations.

Control Risks is a company of the highest integrity with exceptional people delivering a first class service to clients that rely on their expertise. Our investment will enable the management team to continue driving the strong growth of the business as an independent company.
