The principals
are Stuart Poole-Robb, former chief executive of Merchant International Group
and ex-British Special Forces, Brigadier General Gerald Karner, most recently
Head of Strategic Analysis and Planning in the Austrian Ministry of Defence and
Laszlo Pados, General Director of TESCO Consulting
Ltd., formerly Senior Diplomat of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the
Ministry of International Economic Relations.
Through the
principals and a 50-strong team of consultants, as well as correspondents in
almost every major capital across the globe, this alliance offers unrivalled
experience of working within government and an impressive network of high-level
public and private sector relationships across multiple jurisdictions.
Working from
offices in the UK, Austria, Hungary, Brussels, Istanbul, Moscow, Washington, New
Delhi, Shanghai, Hong Kong and Thailand, the alliance will bring its expertise
and contacts to discretely advise Board Directors, CEO’s and Chairmen on
sensitive matters involving businesses in Europe, the US, Russian Federation,
Asia-Pacific, Africa and the Middle East.
The range of
services offered by the alliance includes strategic security and consultancy,
political and commercial risk analysis, corporate intelligence, market entry and
new business development support. Particular emphasis will also be placed on
high-level IT security consultancy through KCS Information Services, headed by
Massimo Cotrozzi. This newly formed cutting edge business deploys unique IT
technical skills to support clients when confronted with cyber threats/sensitive
issues, and helps to assist those clients in dealing with those issues in the
most effective and creative way.
Launching the
newly formed alliance, Stuart Poole Robb said: ‘Bringing together the skills and
resources of these powerful groups as one alliance in a network world offers a
real alternative to the traditional market leaders in risk management, business
development and financial and privatization advisory and investment services. We
will be a major international force to reckon with successfully operating in
almost every country through engagements from senior leaders across a range of
blue-chip multi-national clients.
‘The pace of
political, economic and social change in many countries where corporations do
business is accelerating at a phenomenal rate. As a result it has never been
more important for a business to understand in depth the challenges and
opportunities that are arising in either a new or existing territory. Our
alliance can help to provide that clarity and an unparalleled range of services
that corporations and organisations need for successful performance.’
