Supporting the prevention of money laundering through OSINT research – utilising publicly available information for prevention processes
Under anti-money laundering legislation, companies are required to subject certain business relationships and transactions to enhanced due diligence.
As part of existing compliance processes, we provide structured support using publicly available information on relevant individuals and organisations.

Every step of the investigation and every piece of digital evidence found is documented and, where technically possible, archived to ensure traceability even if the original online content is subsequently altered or deleted.
Our services
We research publicly available information on a relevant individual or organisation in the context of anti-money laundering and document the findings in a manner that is forensically verifiable.
Typical areas of application
How an anti-money laundering investigation works
Publicly available information on the relevant person or organisation is researched in a structured manner and checked against known indicators of money laundering; the results are documented.
Why is money laundering prevention research relevant to forensic investigations?
Publicly available supplementary information can play a key role in supporting a company’s internal risk assessment as part of its statutory anti-money laundering measures.
The forensically documented investigation also helps to demonstrate compliance with statutory due diligence obligations vis-à-vis regulatory authorities.
