Our unique perspective

The Philippines market is complicated by political and economic nuances, weather, security threats, terrorism, insurgency, and lax rule of law. Acquisition of timely, accurate information is both essential and a huge challenge for most organizations.

We have more than 30 years of on-the-ground experience in the Philippines, and extensive knowledge and resources across Southeast Asia. Our operations and analysis teams come from professional backgrounds including government intelligence, military special operations, corporate security, journalism, and management consulting.

We have no political affiliation, and offer a uniquely unbiased view of the Philippines domestic market, legislative landscape, and crisis situations as they occur.
