Intelligo Webinar Highlights Part Two: Modernization of Due Diligence on a Global Scale

Welcome to the second installment of key takeaways from our recent webinar on the modernization of due diligence. Today we’re digging into background checks on a global scale, outlining how Intelligo can help you navigate the complex rules and requirements that vary from country to country. 

Global Nuances 

When it comes to doing business on a global scale, there can be a lot of red tape to cut through and different countries come with their own sets of standards and processes that can be challenging to keep up with. For example, in the UK you can run criminal checks but can’t get official police reports without consent while in Canada you can’t get education verification without consent. Intelligo has the tools needed to help you maneuver these detailed differences, giving you visibility to the data you’re getting country by country, jurisdiction by jurisdiction. 

As the world gets smaller, the ability to explore opportunities in a wide range of countries is becoming more necessary than ever. You don’t need a separate provider to handle your global due diligence, Intelligo does it all. We offer worldwide breadth of coverage and pride ourselves in our international capabilities with a suite of services that automatically adheres to each country’s unique standards and regulations. 

Coverage Comparison Tool

Intelligo’s Coverage Comparison Tool takes the guesswork and unnecessary paperwork out of global background checks so you can get exactly the information you need, without paying for anything you don’t. We believe transparency is key and our coverage comparison tool lets you conduct a cost benefit analysis and decide for yourself the level of due diligence you need on a case by case basis. Simply review the data sets based on the country or countries your subject is associated with and determine which best serves your search. 

We’ll also handle the consent forms and adhere to the nuanced regulations for each particular country, a common pain point when performing international due diligence. In order to overcome these challenges and deliver robust, accurate reports we first and foremost work on mapping the countries where we provide reports. We figure out what information is available and what is required to access it. In the back end, we approach different countries based on their unique parameters. When possible, we partner with locals to help make sure we are covering everything possible. In many cases, information that is available as “open source” that doesn’t require subject consent in the U.S. does in fact require consent in other countries. While we have the ability to perform in-depth investigations globally without consent, there are specific searches or verifications that will only be possible with consent and additional on the ground partners. In order to meet this need we provide our Global Data Extension that helps us fill in gaps of information that can only be obtained with consent and often additional identifying documents. We’ve taken the step to map everything out within the platform so you can check jurisdiction by jurisdiction what’s included both with and without the extension to determine if it’s necessary to obtain consent and run the extension.

The other service Intelligo provides is the ability to run multi-jurisdiction reports. When investigating a person who has a global footprint, it is often insufficient to investigate them in one jurisdiction and ignore the others where they have associations. Additionally, the picture that presents from one jurisdiction will likely be incomplete and may lead you to make your decision without having all of the information you need. Ensure you’re making the most informed decision possible with Intelligo, your one-stop-shop for all your due diligence needs and streamline your searches with our customizable approach to background checks. Whether your search is local, global, or both we can handle it all, hosting your reports on one easy to navigate platform where the bottom line is always top of mind.
