Our philosophy

A tailored approach

Our experience enables us to offer a customised approach tailored to your chosen objectives, while working within your constraints. It also allows us to provide you with a concise and reliable analysis of the information gathered so as to respond to your specific requirement.

As a consulting firm we advocate an approach based on listening and mutual trust with our clients. We maintain a regular dialogue with you to refine our work, and we are transparent about the methods used when collaborating with partners internationally or on topics requiring specific expertise.

An exploratory methodology

In terms of strategic information research, there is no clear, predefined path that systematically leads to the desired outcome.

One piece of information exists in various forms: be it written or spoken, on paper or online, accessible or archived, synthesised or disseminated. Our approach is to determine where and through which means it is possible to obtain the specific elements our clients need to be able to make informed decisions.

Our commitments

We work with businesses of all sizes irrespective of industry, from small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to large corporations. We also work closely with corporate advisors (lawyers, accountants) and investment funds.

Independence


INDICO-Intelligence is owned by its founders and is not linked to any group or network of intelligence firms. We are free to choose our partners and we will not accept a case which would place us into a conflict of interest.

Interoperability


We can integrate larger teams, especially for fraud investigations or asset searches, to provide them with our expertise. We can also form ad-hoc teams, bringing together specific skills, as and when required by a particular case entrusted to us.

Guarantees

We are fully compliant with the laws and regulations of the countries in which we operate, as well as anti-corruption laws (Sapin II, FCPA, UK Bribery Act). Our partners and subcontractors commit contractually to do the same. Our data is hosted in France in an encrypted format; we use a software certified by ANSSI and NATO. INDICO-Intelligence has professional liability insurance of up to 1 million euros.
