Expanding Global Risk Visibility for a Due Diligence Firm

By Ladanna James - Head of Marketing and Partnerships
The Challenge
A client mandated a single-jurisdiction-only investigation in North America for a globally active company.
Despite the company’s international footprint, the scope was restricted.
This meant:
- 🚫 Limited visibility into risks outside the target jurisdiction.
- 🕵️ Traditional tools and manual searches couldn’t detect global exposures.
- ⚠️ The firm risked missing critical legal or reputational issues.
The Solution
By integrating Valital’s AI-powered Adverse Media Screening, the firm gained global visibility without extra configuration or setup.
Here’s how Valital changed their investigation:
- Global by Default: Scans across borders automatically—no need to expand scope manually.
- Adverse Media Intelligence: Detected a court case outside the jurisdiction that all other tools missed.
- Smart Categorization: Aligned perfectly with the firm’s internal red–amber–green risk system.
- Built-in Summaries: Delivered instant context, allowing analysts to focus on insights, not noise.
This discovery became a turning point, validating the firm’s long-standing push for global due diligence backed by hard evidence.
The Result
Since adopting Valital, the firm has:
- 📈 Expanded their investigation scope confidently and backed it with data-driven insights.
- 🧠 Identified critical risks previously invisible with traditional tools.
- ⏱️ Streamlined workflows, reducing time spent on manual global searches.
- 💡 Strengthened client trust by delivering more comprehensive and defensible risk profiles.
“Valital didn’t just surface a hidden legal risk—it proved the value of global due diligence.”
