Firm Profile
Forensic Risk Alliance (FRA) is a global market leader working with our clients to identify, analyze, and mitigate the risks associated with international regulatory compliance obligations, litigation, internal and external multi-jurisdictional investigations. Unlike traditional accounting firms, we operate purely in the forensic space and generally have no conflict. Our highly skilled and sophisticated leaders and team members are forensic accountants, former investment bankers, financial and data analysts, legal and litigation support professionals, database architects, electronic discovery and collection experts, software engineers, and certified computer examiners.
As internationally recognized specialists in multi-jurisdictional investigations, we bring a high level of confidence to clients facing serious issues by providing clear, robust, and candid advice that is trusted by clients, regulators, courts, and enforcement agencies.
We have extensive cross-sector and cross-border experience and scalability anywhere in the world. Our globally integrated teams have worked in more than 75 countries across both developed economies and emerging markets.
We offer extensive data privacy and protection and jurisdiction-specific experience such as blocking statute, banking secrecy, commercial secrecy, global privacy legislation and security risks, state sponsored and other hacking, leaks, data loss, and excessive data retention.
FRA leaders and team members include professionals with regulatory body and law enforcement agency experience. We have individuals who have worked for the UK Serious Fraud Office (SFO), US Securities and Exchanges Commission (SEC), and US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).
Our expertise in complex data analytics, information technology, and data management lies at the core of our foundation. Our data analytics team seamlessly integrates with our forensic accounting, digital forensics, and eDiscovery teams to ensure an empirical approach to solving client problems and offers creative analytical and visualization solutions tailored to client needs.
We build strong client relationships, acting as partner, trusted advisor and thought leader. Many clients have relied on us for more than two decades to deliver client service excellence, subject matter expertise and global market knowledge.
We take pride in our inclusive and diverse teams operating in our ‘one firm’ collaborative culture across disciplines and geographies with global mobility. Many are multi-national and multi-lingual professionals.
