Post 9-11 instilled a sharp new awareness for companies worldwide to reevaluate their risks and security needs in order to safely continue operations. Meeting this high demand of risk management, in which many companies have little to no knowledge, are the specialists of the Control Risks Group – an international business consultancy. Control Risk has provided nearly 30 years of expertise in 130 countries to many of the world’s largest corporations in four fields of focus: political and security risk analysis, confidential investigations, security consultancy crisis management and response.

Headquartered in London, the group has locations in 13 countries including Japan where 15 percent of their worldwide clients have their head offices.

Managing Director Nigel Churton explains, “The Japanese are a very important piece of our business. We like working for them. They are challenging and quite rightfully demanding. They take the advice that we give them seriously and tend to act on it. In that sense they are very satisfied clients.”

Control Risks Group acts in complete confidentiality with all clients and will continue seizing business opportunities where others see only risk.
