How we form project teams

BLACKFILE is an international team of specialists in due diligence, verification, investigations and risk management. Expertise is selected to suit each matter.

01

A team assembled for each matter

  • There is no fixed, all-purpose team: specialists with the relevant expertise are selected for each project.
  • The project lead has overall responsibility for the outcome and coordination.
  • The composition depends on the type of matter, the jurisdictions involved and the level of risk.
02

Why specialist identities are not published

  • This protects clients: specialists cannot be linked to a particular project.
  • This protects the independence of the research from external pressure.
  • This protects the specialists who work with sensitive materials.
  • We do not publish invented names or biographies. We are transparent about keeping our team anonymous.
03

Public representatives

  • A representative's name, role and portrait are published only with their personal consent.
  • Only verifiable professional experience is published.
  • A single point of contact is sufficient for all dealings with the company.
04

Project team expertise

  • Project management. Coordination of complex international checks and clear overall responsibility for the result.
  • Due Diligence. Verification of companies, owners, executives, business history, and risk factors.
  • Checks on people. Analysis of background, connections, assets, litigation history, and business reputation.
  • Locating people. Establishing a person's location, current contacts, activity, and environment.
  • Asset tracing. Identification of corporate connections, real estate, property interests, and financial traces.
  • Debt investigations. Search for debtors and assets, assessment of recovery prospects, and information support for enforcement.
  • Legal analysis. Assessment of the legality of methods, the legal environment, documents, and jurisdictional limitations.
  • OSINT and verification. Collection, cross-referencing, and multi-level verification of information from permissible sources.

Information about specialists directly involved in projects is not disclosed publicly. This is an operational standard.
