Herminius was commissioned to provide a detailed profile of a businessman with operations in West and Southern Africa. The client understood that the businessman had been loosely tied to reports of arms dealing, procurement corruption, and bribery. Herminius conducted discreet enquiries with over 20 contacts and found that the allegations were unsubstantiated and had been fully investigated with no further action being taken. As a result, the client was sufficiently comfortable to onboard the individual.
