Unlocking confidence in high-risk markets

In many emerging and opaque markets, company data is incomplete, unverified, or deliberately obscured. Automated assessments offer speed, but not certainty. ICP exists for moments when confidence must be earned through evidence, judgement, and context, not inferred from surface-level data.

Built around the decision in front of you

ICP research is commissioned when the potential cost of being wrong is higher than the cost of looking deeper.

A clearer credit decision before exposure grows.

  • Ownership and control context
  • Payment and trading insight
  • Verified red flags and contradictions

Human-verified expertise

Proprietary research

Every investigation follows a research framework developed through decades of fieldwork, not theory.

Local researchers

Our work is grounded in interviews and primary sources, gathered by researchers who understand local context.

Judgement over aggregation

We do not aggregate data. We assess it. Each finding is reviewed, challenged, and contextualised.

Reports written for decisions

Our reports are not archives. They are written to support a specific decision, at a specific moment.

Over four decades of trust and global reach

Four decades of research discipline, regional knowledge, and decisions that had to hold up.
