Reputational risk for organisations:
the need for due diligence

Integri is a UK governance and compliance consultancy specialising in Preventative Governance and reputational protection.
For organisations, Pre-Engagement Due Diligence applies before a sensitive prospective engagement, while Verify applies before an appointment or selection decision.
Induct provides governance onboarding after appointment; Reverse Firewall provides continuing preventative support for proposed communications.

Before engagement

Pre-Engagement Due Diligence

Pre-Engagement Due Diligence is reputational due diligence for organisations considering a prospective engagement with a counterparty. It examines publicly or legitimately accessible material and agreed client-supplied material within a scope agreed at commissioning, and reports what the evidence supports, what is contradicted, and what remains unresolved, with the sources on which those findings rest.

Before an appointment

Verify

Verify is reputational due diligence for organisations with selection, governance or oversight responsibilities, undertaken before an appointment or selection decision is made. It reviews publicly accessible material within a scope agreed at commissioning. The standard assessment period is five years ending on the assessment date, with any longer period specifically justified and agreed in advance. Each finding is reported, along with the sources on which it rests.

Sample Verify reports

Three illustrative sample reports show what a Verify report looks like across the three conclusions. The subjects are fictional and the reports demonstrate the format rather than evidencing any real assessment.

The Case for Assessment

The argument for assessing before an appointment rather than investigating afterwards is set out separately, along with the sourced governance context on which it rests.
