Political Intelligence and Analysis
Pacific Rim Intelligence Solutions Institute's (PRISI) primary area of expertise is in the field of political intelligence and analysis. PRISI has access to an extensive network of information and actual on the ground political and social intelligence, which is provided by an exceptional network of people and third party sources of information spanning the globe.
PRISI can access information that is relevant and pertinent to its clients and package that information into a comprehensible and actionable set of steps and items ready for execution. PRISI's true contribution, however, is not only in the nature of the information provided, but also in the comprehensive analysis and unique, proprietary data that it can access on behalf of its clients. PRISI's network can often get information or access to data that is difficult to obtain from any other source or network. With access to properly packaged information of this nature, the client will be better prepared for the operating environment it faces in any particular location. Additionally, we can process information that is relevant on behalf of the client in order to provide him with a project, specific management plan or strategy suited for the particular operating environment. This service will help the client ensure a smoother and more socially integrated operation with fewer potential incidents of political or social discord. It will also provide a clear risk assessment picture.
Clients operating in unstable or violent region are especially in need of prompt access to up-to-date and correct intelligence. These clients also require information from both traditional and non-traditional sources with access to unique data and social networks. Such information helps to interpret current events and project trends, as well as lends meaning to social events, political developments and policy changes. Intelligence such as this is an indispensable source for any organization operating in a region with little in the way of public disclosure or accountable political and/or legal structures, as well as societies with large economic, social and ethnic diversities.
Through its established network of employees, partners and associates, CTSS Group's PRISI is able to to provide clients with detailed intelligence that is relevant for their business and strategic operations in virtually any location. We guarantee that we will help the client interpret the intelligence obtained and assist with its practical usage from a business and operations perspective. In short, PRISI can provide the analytical and intelligence capability that your firm lacks and permit it to operate in a safer, more informed way.
Political Risk Consultation
PRISI - CTSS provides Political Risk Analysis and Consultation for a broad range of clients to assist them in risk mitigation. By determining what risks clients potentially face and how to diminish them, we aim to provide a more predictable, safer and more stable operating environment. Our aim is to help our customers (including Government Institutions and Bureaucracies, cabinets; individual members of Parliament, IGOs, NGOs, corporations and individual investors) evaluate what risk factors could confront them when venturing into a new business area, region, nation or location. This allows them to make better and more informed decisions. We can furthermore assist in advocating on our client's behalf in front of pertinent parties.
We pride ourselves on providing a holistic and comprehensive picture of potential risks, which include: political instability, drastic and sudden political change, terrorist and militant groups, political, environmental and social activists, corruption, environmental hazards, legal structure and application issues, basic macro-economic and business conditions, as well as other issue-specific risks. The PRISI - CTSS team is unique in that it provides its clients with unparalleled cultural and local knowledge of the nation or area. In addition to providing demographic and national perspective, but we address more sensitive and in-depth issues, such as analysis of the local business environment, ethnic and clan considerations and long simmering political tensions. Because we are able to provide the client with this information as part of our holistic approach, we give you an edge in your local interactions and ensure that you avoid potential pitfalls.
We offer reliable, high-quality and cost-effective consulting and security services with the firm belief that our truly integrated turn-key services offer a better and more viable alternative than currently existing options. All CTSS personnel adhere to the strictest confidentiality standards and segmentation procedures. Our key operational personnel all possess current and valid security clearances in their respective coverage areas, which allows us to work seamlessly with US, Japanese and other government entities and clients.
We utilize a proven 5 step method to evaluate the potential risks for governmental actors, individuals and firms and their various investments. This way, we get a clear and complete picture of the potential risk and its solutions.
These 5 steps are:
Potential Risk Identification
Risk Assessment and Evaluation
Potential Scenario Planning
Risk Precautions
Pre-emptive and Precautionary Steps
This comprehensive approach ensures that our clients obtain a complete picture of the risks they face and how to best avoid and/or mitigate that risk. Our approach also ensures that the client not only receives consultation on the more obvious risks, but also that they receive a detailed analysis on more opaque risk factors, such as local corruption, pressure groups, hidden political and environmental liabilities, etc. While we generally approach the project in a top down-manner, evaluating the geo-political and national issues first, it is equally important to get a clear picture of the more obscure issues, as they could have an equally large impact. When provided with this comprehensive picture, our clients are in a better position to evaluate the hazards they could face and therefore able to make informed decisions regarding how to proceed.
