Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD)
We check who you are about to do business with, so you don’t inherit their problems. Protect your investments with deep-dive investigative due diligence, PEP mapping, and anti-corruption vetting aligned with FCPA and UKBA standards.
For multinational corporations, institutional investors, and private equity funds, entering joint ventures or executing acquisitions in East Africa presents significant compliance hurdles. Standard background checks often fail to flag deep-seated regulatory risks, political liabilities, or historical corruption.
Magneto Limited delivers investigative Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD) that goes far beyond public record data.
Our compliance intelligence aligns directly with the stringent risk assessment frameworks mandated by the US Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA), the UK Bribery Act (UKBA), and international anti-money laundering (AML) protocols.
What we do
Politically Exposed Persons (PEPs) & Sanctions Mapping
In many African countries, business and politics are closely tied. We find the hidden links, family ties and silent partners that connect a company to government officials, military figures or people under sanctions.
Source of Wealth & Capital Legitimacy Audits
Before you sign a deal or take in outside investment, you need to know where the money came from. We trace how your local partners built their wealth, so you are not caught up in money laundering.
Human Intelligence (HUMINT) & Reputational Vetting
The biggest warning signs are rarely written down. We hold quiet, one-to-one conversations with competitors, former executives and people in the regulators’ circles. This often brings out past fraud, market tricks and unethical behavior.
Pre-Transaction M&A Risk Assessments
We identify latent compliance liabilities within target companies prior to corporate restructuring or integration. This process ensures your management team can negotiate appropriate indemnities or rectify vulnerabilities before closing the transaction.
