Investigative methodologies

VSG’s investigative process is based on the United Nations Investigative and Auditing Standards to ensure that our investigators operate to the highest level.

We undertake the following steps when conducting an investigation:

All investigative services we provide are comprehensively documented with a thorough level of diligence occurring before a conclusion is reached. Regular contact is maintained with you throughout the investigative process, and an investigation timeline and plan are developed in conjunction with you once we have been briefed.

Each step of the investigation is documented to ensure continuity and accountability throughout. This also provides you with visibility over the investigative process and how we reached our conclusion. Our team are individually held under non-disclosure agreements to ensure confidentiality is maintained throughout and on-going.

We are capable of conducting investigations on an individual or team basis and our investigative personnel have participated in various misconduct, fraud, Crime and Corruption Task Forces, government and corporate investigative teams.
