Development organizations and corporates operating in development countries are exposed to a wide variety of legal, financial, operational and reputational integrity risks.

Risks escalate as public and investor scrutiny increases, local instability grows, and integrity regulations become stricter.

Tackling such risks and integrity violations — such as fraud, corruption, collusion or workplace misconduct— is becoming essential for development organizations to fulfill their mission, and for companies to operate effectively while remaining competitive.

Drakensberg’s mission is to help these organizations and corporates prevent, and respond to, integrity risks and violations affecting their activities.

We notably support entities:

• operating or funding activities in countries/sectors exposed to high integrity risks;

• participating in activities funded by international organizations (e.g., MDBs/IFIs) or national development agencies;

• subject to strict integrity regulations or extraterritorial anticorruption legislation (e.g., FCPA, Sapin II);

• suspecting integrity violations involving their employees or external stakeholders; or

• involved in MDB or national proceedings.

We also advise entities exposed to ESG integrity risks (environmental, social and governance violations).
