The world today is fraught with uncertainty. What is the next failed state? How will market turmoil affect a country’s trading partners? Will hardship and mass migration impact the security of neighboring countries? Is alternative energy a viable option to enhance development and promote stability? Organizations must be prepared for many contingencies, and be equipped with the right knowledge to continue to function in risky and unstable environments. To help make sense of these and other factors, ProVerity supports a cross section of organizational efforts in three broad areas.

Economic development in emerging, transitional and post-conflict societies

Effective provision of economic aid and technical assistance requires solid planning (with built-in redundancies), extensive due diligence on project viability, cultural and linguistic know-how, and a keen understanding of macro factors that impact the situation at hand — such as relevant societal dynamics, key actors and stakeholders, and economic leverage points. All play a part in accomplishing a successful development strategy.

We understand these primary drivers and have a track record of service delivery in many austere environments. Our associates have performed on engagements in numerous challenging operational situations.

Risk analysis and mitigation for operations and personnel across the globe

When events turn sour will you be prepared to keep life and property safe? You’ve read the headlines, but how do you know if a particular country or region is really as stable (or unstable) as it appears?

We get to the reality behind the hype and provide you with the specific information and expert advice you need. As just one example, ProVerity advised a major international services company on its Middle Eastern security posture and provided compact mission briefs to support VIP travel and recommend appropriate protective measures.

Country and sector studies to support investment decisions

Business decision challenges are compounded when entering unfamiliar markets where the rules are not evident and reliable data is difficult to obtain.

ProVerity conducts focused and in-depth research and analysis that is geared toward business investment decisions. We can help provide you with the “ground truth” you need, whether you want to study several markets to choose the most favorable or look at specific sectors within a particular country.

ProVerity’s tailored country risk reports cover areas like labor force dynamics and intellectual property risk for multinational organizations, as well as domestic companies looking to expand into new markets.
