Executive Profile & Value Proposition​

​​

Vilhelm Konnander, CEO, is a results-driven Strategic Risk & Compliance Advisor with deep expertise in guiding firms through complex geopolitical and regulatory challenges across high-risk markets, specifically Russia/CIS, MENA, and South Asia.

​

The firm’s unique value is its capacity to combine rigorous, multi-source intelligence methodology with exceptional cross-cultural competence. This enables the translation of political and systemic foresight into robust commercial protection and risk mitigation strategies.

​​​​​​

Core Expertise & Advisory Focus

​​

As a Senior Advisor, the focus is on three critical pillars of non-market risk management, underpinned by unparalleled analytical rigor developed over years of high-stakes environments:

​

1. Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD) & Anti-Corruption: Leveraging advanced OSINT methodologies and intelligence-based cross-validation to uncover hidden political risk, financial crime, and links to sanctioned entities.

2. Sanctions & AML Compliance: Developing and auditing adherence frameworks, specializing in cross-border transactions and energy-sector exposure. This work is informed by a strategic history of contributing to high-level policy intelligence regarding the threat from high-risk states.

3. Geopolitical & Strategic Risk: Providing proactive intelligence and forward-looking risk assessments for market entry, strategic planning, and crisis preparedness in volatile regions. This expertise is founded on a deep understanding of strategic defence analysis and the translation of such foresight into actionable commercial strategy.

Cross-Cultural Resilience

​​

The advisory approach is reinforced by extensive on-the-ground experience and successful engagement in complex jurisdictions including Russia, Turkey, the UAE, and India. This ensures that all strategic advice is culturally viable and operationally effective in high-stakes environments.
