What a corporate investigation is

Independent fact-finding when something has gone wrong

A corporate investigation establishes what happened, who was involved and what can be proven. It starts from a concern, such as suspected fraud, a whistleblower report, missing funds, a dispute or counterfeit goods in the market, and ends with documented findings you can act on.

VERIS works for companies, law firms, banks and investors across Singapore, Indonesia and Southeast Asia. Enquiries are discreet and lawful: we combine public records, corporate and court registries, digital evidence and human-source enquiry in the local language.

Because the same team also runs due diligence, what we learn about ownership, relationships and reputation feeds straight into the investigation.

Frequently asked questions

What clients ask before engaging

What is a corporate investigation?+
An independent enquiry into suspected fraud, misconduct, hidden assets, disputes or brand infringement, ending in documented findings a company can act on.
Will the people involved know they are being investigated?+
Enquiries are discreet and lawful. Whether and when anyone is told is agreed with you at the start.
Can the findings be used in court?+
Findings are documented with their evidence and sources so your lawyers can decide how to use them. For litigation matters we work with counsel from the start.
Which countries do you cover?+
Singapore and Indonesia directly, from offices in both, with casework across 30 jurisdictions anchored in Southeast Asia.
How is an investigation different from due diligence?+
Due diligence checks a company or person before a decision. An investigation starts after something has gone wrong. VERIS does both, so one can lead into the other.
How do we start?+
Contact us with a short description of the concern. We will agree the scope, confidentiality and timeline before any work begins.
