GSA provides intelligence led due diligence services to help organisations, law firms, family offices and leadership teams assess risk before engaging key individuals, suppliers, partners or investment opportunities. Our investigations examine background, integrity, financial position, regulatory exposure, ownership structures, digital footprint and reputational risk.
We deliver a full spectrum of due diligence services including Standard Due Diligence Checking, Enhanced Due Diligence, Financial Due Diligence, and Commercial Due Diligence to help organisations anticipate issues early, meet regulatory expectations, and make confident, defensible decisions. Whether supporting senior appointments, procurement activities, investment planning, or complex international operations, GSA provides clear, evidence-based insight that protects both reputation and operational resilience.
Our standard due diligence checking offers a reliable baseline assessment covering identity verification, professional history, sanctions and PEP screening, adverse media, litigation records, and reputational indicators. These checks are ideal for routine appointments, supplier onboarding, or early-stage risk evaluation, providing a clear picture of whether individuals or organisations meet your expectations of integrity and suitability.
For higher-risk roles, sensitive appointments, or complex partnerships, GSA delivers enhanced due diligence that goes deeper than standard checks. This includes discreet background enquiries, source interviews, expanded OSINT analysis, financial insight, conflict-of-interest mapping, and assessments of personal or organisational vulnerabilities. Enhanced due diligence provides a more complete understanding of character, conduct, and any hidden risks that may impact operational, regulatory, or reputational outcomes.
Our financial due diligence reviews evaluate the stability, history, and financial behaviour of individuals or organisations. We analyse credit indicators, corporate filings, insolvency history, ownership structures, undisclosed interests, and indicators of fraud or irregularity. This service supports investment decisions, senior hires, procurement, and high-value partnerships, helping organisations avoid financial exposure and protect long-term resilience.
Commercial due diligence focuses on the broader business environment surrounding an organisation or opportunity. This includes assessing market positioning, operational capability, leadership reputation, regulatory compliance, historical performance, and strategic risks. We provide clients with a rounded view of commercial viability and potential vulnerabilities, particularly useful for mergers, acquisitions, or strategic partnerships.
Our Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT) capability enhances all levels of due diligence, leveraging advanced tools and methodologies to examine digital footprints, social media activity, corporate linkages, behavioural patterns, and hidden reputational risks. OSINT provides valuable insights that traditional checks may overlook, enabling organisations to identify early-warning signs, integrity concerns, or undisclosed networks that could influence decision-making.
Third party due diligence helps organisations understand the risks linked to suppliers, advisers, contractors, intermediaries and business partners. This can include ownership structures, sanctions exposure, adverse media, litigation history, conflicts of interest, financial stability, cyber risk indicators and reputational concerns.

Our services can support senior appointments, supplier onboarding, investment decisions, mergers and acquisitions, litigation support, family office advisory, private client matters and high risk partnerships. Independent due diligence helps identify red flags early, including sanctions exposure, adverse media, financial concerns, conflicts of interest, undisclosed connections, regulatory issues and reputational risk.
GSA help organisations verify integrity, assess risk, and confirm that individuals, partners, or suppliers are suitable and trustworthy. They provide clear insight into background, reputation, financial stability, and potential red flags before key decisions are made.
Standard due diligence covers core ‘red flag’ checks such as identity, professional history, sanctions, litigation, and adverse media. Enhanced due diligence goes deeper, incorporating discreet enquiries, expanded OSINT analysis, conflict-of-interest mapping, and financial and behavioural insights, ideal for higher-risk or sensitive appointments.
Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT) provides insights through public data, social media, digital footprints, corporate records, and online behavioural patterns. It can uncover reputational risks, undisclosed connections, or early-warning indicators that traditional checks may miss.
