Frequently Answered Questions

  • What is included in a due diligence investigation?

    Your Investigator will typically include a full review of public records, including, but not limited to: corporate registration, civil and criminal legal records, bankruptcies, judgments, liens, local and English-language media and internet records. They will also cross-reference sanctions lists and political exposure databases.
    The goal of each investigation is to build a reputational profile of the subject(s) so that you can make the best possible business decisions with confidence. In jurisdictions where publicly available information is limited, we work with our clients to craft a cost-conscious human intelligence report that utilizes our global network of sources to assess the reputation of the parties in question.

  • How does Bedrock's due diligence investigation service differ from other providers?

    Bedrock's due diligence investigations combine human research with technological enhancement to ensure the accuracy of the information presented and assist in decreasing turnaround times. Our research staff is trained to see subjects as a whole and to use the totality of research findings to confirm, question, and present the most comprehensive report possible.

  • What circumstances generally require a due diligence investigation?

    In most cases, our clients will request a due diligence investigation prior to the closing of a merger or acquisition, public filing, equity or cash investment, or on a routine basis as part of a comprehensive anti-bribery & corruption (ABC) or anti-money laundering (AML) program. Our services are sometimes utilized for the purpose of remediation or internal whistleblower cases.

  • What foreign jurisdictions do you cover?

    When accessing public records, we are able to cover nearly every jurisdiction. However, some jurisdictions without online records require a solution tailored to your needs that may in some cases require discreet source inquiries.

  • How are you able to assess a subject's political or government exposure in foreign jurisdictions?

    Our investigators speak with a range of well-informed and non-biased sources to gain an understanding of the subject's political leanings, involvement, and the nature of their relationships with government officials or politicians. This gives us the best chance of uncovering any untoward use of those connections. We are also able to conduct politically exposed persons (PEP) searches and uncover records of political donations.

  • How are you able to navigate sanctioned countries and conflict zones?

    We will not operate in sanctioned countries including, but not limited to Iran, Syria, and North Korea. We will not pay administrative or other fees to government agencies in sanctioned countries to retrieve information (i.e. corporate registration records, legal documents, etc.). We also will not engage sources for source information in sanctioned countries, conflict zones or jurisdictions where the source may be subject to injury or imprisonment.

  • What does a Know Your Customer/AML report include?

    Our investigators gather intelligence and report on identity, known locations and associates, and sanctions and watchlists. Each report can be customized based on your specific industry regulations.

  • Do your reports cover international sanctions and watchlists?

    Yes, each Know Your Customer/AML report includes data gathered from both domestic and foreign searches including public records and online databases. Often, clients request further human intelligence via discreet source inquiries.

  • Can you uncover a company’s UBO operating in a jurisdiction with limited records?

    Perhaps. By leveraging open source information and human intelligence gathered through discreet source inquiries, our investigative team is often able to identify a company’s ultimate beneficial owner (UBO) that is operating in a jurisdiction that has limited or difficult-to-uncover public records. Moreover, our investigators can reveal if that UBO is a “front man” or the true owner.

  • What does an asset search report include?

    Our reports include a subject’s identified assets and liabilities, and details for each case on employment history, civil or criminal records, and known associates.

  • How are liabilities broken down in your asset search reports?

    Yes. Each report will include all identified liabilities including bankruptcies, judgments, state and federal tax liens, uniform commercial code (UCC) liens, and lawsuits.

  • Does Bedrock perform forensic accounting?

    No. An asset search focuses on compiling and analyzing the status of assets as part of a due diligence background investigation. Uncovering assets associated with an individual or entity does not include critical analysis, and our investigators cannot report on assets transferred to another entity.

  • Will an executive candidate know if he or she is being screened?

    We always follow all industry regulations and standards when conducting executive pre-employment screenings. Based on SRA and employment laws, an employer can never screen potential employees without getting a release form from the candidate ensuring that they know their rights and the information being provided to the employer.

  • What specific criteria is provided in an executive pre-employment screening?

    We have various capabilities based on our clients’ internal compliance. Our team can help guide you through industry standards to set up protocols for your company.

    For example, our investigators can compile existing criminal and civil records from court systems in the U.S. and abroad, social media content analysis, reviews of sanctions and government watchlists, and verification of educational and employment history.

  • How often should my company screen its executives?

    Many firms only screen executives upon hiring. Your company may be exposed to more risk by limiting employment screening in this way. We can assist you in determining how to mitigate risk with your current staff.

  • How do you qualify your human intelligence and present that information in a report?

    By speaking with well-informed sources in a given industry and adhering to strict intelligence qualifying standards, we avoid presenting speculative and unreliable intelligence as facts. Potentially adverse intelligence is presented in its proper context and almost always alongside commentary from additional sources to support or refute it.

  • Can you identify the ultimate beneficial owner of a company operating in an opaque jurisdiction?

    Through the combination of open source and human intelligence, our investigators can often identify the ultimate beneficial owner (UBO) of a company operating in an opaque jurisdiction and more importantly understand if that UBO is the actual owner or a front man.

  • How do you maintain discretion when conducting source inquiries?

    We have multiple measures in place to ensure OPSEC in our investigations. By adhering to strict standards for sources, we are able to maintain OPSEC throughout the investigation process. Discretion is built into the process.

  • How can MosaicIQ improve due diligence?

    Our hybrid approach of human and technology insight, poring through hundreds of pages of content from the subject’s public profiles, as well as content that includes a name and affiliation match, can be completed with the quickest and most accurate reporting.

  • Will the subject be notified of the social media screening?

    No. We adhere to all legal requirements and industry standards when performing all investigations. In the case of social media screenings, we are not required to notify the subject.
