High Quality Integrity Due Diligence & Bespoke Corporate Intelligence
Before a deal closes, a partnership begins, or litigation proceeds, the quality of your intelligence shapes the quality of your decision. Maddocks Insight provides rigorous, multilingual due diligence and corporate investigations, working in local languages, from primary sources across Europe, the Middle East, North Africa, China and beyond. Our clients include Big Four accountancy firms, international law firms, and specialist risk consultancies.
Reliable Corporate Intelligence
Maddocks Insight provides bespoke corporate and business intelligence solutions to help clients know more about their current or potential business partners, M&A targets, supply chains and counterparties in legal disputes.
Whether you need a quick KYC check, sanctions screening, open source intelligence (OSINT), or an in-depth enhanced due diligence report, we work with you to deliver exactly what the situation requires - even in difficult jurisdictions.

Integrity Due Diligence
Do you really know everything you need to about your JV partner, franchisee, M&A target or supplier? Our integrity due diligence reports provide a thorough assessment of a subject's track record, reputation, and any red flags.
We also assist with FCPA and UK Bribery Act compliance, anti-money laundering checks, and corruption-related due diligence for regulated industries.

Multilingual Investigations
Our team combines deep language skills with international affairs expertise, allowing us to conduct investigations across most of Europe, the Middle East & North Africa, large areas of sub-Saharan Africa, South America, North America, and China.
Working in local languages - rather than relying on translated sources - means we access a richer, more accurate picture of any subject.
Regions We Cover →
Specialist in Emerging Markets
Emerging markets present great opportunities, but also significant risks - opaque ownership structures, unreliable public records, and elevated corruption exposure. We are experienced in navigating these environments and conducting due diligence and political risk assessments in volatile countries.
Middle East & North Africa →
Litigation Support & Asset Tracing
Sometimes things go wrong after a deal has been concluded. We help clients establish the facts needed for asset recovery or potential litigation - tracing assets across jurisdictions, identifying beneficial ownership, and building an evidentiary picture for legal teams.

Database Services
We make challenging public datasets reverse-searchable - including corporate registries in Lebanon, Belgium and Luxembourg, civil litigation records in Dubai, and company data from Jordan. If your due diligence hits a dead end, our databases may hold the answer.
