 hitherto undisclosed information on market developments, including the background, reputation and connections of partners, customers, potential employees, competitors and counterparties.
Operating in East Asia often involves navigating formal and informal relationships, with inconsistent regulation and unclear connections between state-sponsored and private activity.
This routinely exposes companies to corruption risks, such as money-laundering, organised crime, and FCPA and UK Bribery Act breaches.
We confirm standards, screen counterparties, and provide insight on compliance requirements by guiding companies on how best to approach partnerships and official interaction.
We are highly skilled in identifying ‘red flags’: issues that could cause reputational or financial damage.
Often this requires multi-jurisdictional investigation in East Asian languages. Our findings are key to informed decision-making.

Both officers were suspended and are facing charges, but 20 months after, they’re still getting paid and haven’t gone to trial. The incident happened during St. Patrick’s Day Parade festivities on March 11, 2018.
Former Cmdr. Timothy Larrance Leach, 48, and Officer Frederick Eugene Person, 53, are accused of assaulting Michael Ryan Karpovich, 42, of Washington Township. Chief James Craig said that 11th Precinct Cmdr. Leach was off-duty and in an “unauthorized outside employment capacity” on March 11 when Karpovich was hurt.
Craig said Karpovich was “involved with a person working as a bouncer” and was “taken to the ground.” Leach was demoted to lieutenant shortly after the incident, police said.
In May 2018 Leach was charged with assault to do great bodily harm, aggravated assault, neglect of duty, no license security guard and tampering with evidence. Person was at the scene working as a security guard at the restaurant, police said. In May 2018 Person was charged with obstruction of justice, neglect of duty and tampering with evidence.
Some are wondering if the delay in the trial has something to do with the men being highly-decorated veteran officers, one a well-liked commander of the 11th Precinct with an outstanding record and the other a rising detective.
It has been 18 months since the two were charged with injuring Karpovich and 13 months since they were bound over for trial. Some appeals by Leach’s attorney have stalled the case, but nearly two years after the incident the officers are still getting paid.
At the time, Craig recommended an unpaid suspension.
“What triggers me bringing a case like that is if they’re charged with a felony,” Craig said.
Leach was charged with a felony, but he was overruled by a majority on the Board of Police Commissioners, which included Willie Bell.
“We don’t rubber stamp. We look at it from on its own face value, look at the video, look at the facts and we made a decision to keep him on leave with pay,” Bell said.
Bell said they reviewed surveillance video of the incident and despite criminal charges, he thinks Leach should be back on the job.
Craig said the criminal case may be on hold indefinitely, but he is ready to make a decision on his standing with the department.
“We’re going to move forward with the administrative part of the investigation,” Craig said.
It has been a month since there’s been any activity in the court case. Leach’s attorney said a couple issues, including having one of the charges thrown out, have been appealed to the Michigan Supreme Court and until it decides everything is on hold.

More Information About This Show :Home Latest News Google Pixel Buds fall to their cheapest price yet at Amazon –...
If you’ve reached the point where you’re sick of untangling wires every time you want to listen to music or make a call, then maybe you’ve decided it’s about time to get some wireless earbuds. Well, now’s a good time to buy as the Google Pixel Buds are available for £73.99 at Amazon (opens in new tab), down from £99.99.
That’s the cheapest price yet for the Google Pixel Buds, beating the previous record low by £5 according to our price tracker. And, with more devices now dropping the 3.5mm jack required to use wired headphones, this is an excellent deal for some wireless earbuds that offer high-quality audio and useful voice-activated features through Google Assistant.
Still, for those using one of Google’s own smartphones – or on more modern Android devices – then the Pixel Buds are a solid option for listening to music and taking calls that beat many similar earbuds in this price range.
Save £26 – Get the Google Pixel Buds for the cheapest price we’ve ever seen right now at Amazon. Know that many of the best features, such as Google Assistant and Google Translate, are only available when paired with Google Pixel phones or the latest Android devices so keep that in mind before you buy. If that’s fine, though, then these mid-range earbuds offer best-in-class audio and excellent battery life compared to others in this price range, making today’s deal even better value for money.
You’ve got some time to consider it as this deal is scheduled to run for the next 12 days. That also means you won’t find these cheaper on Prime Day next week, so there’s no need to wait until Amazon’s summer sale to see if the discount increases.
If you do decide you’d prefer some earbuds that are better suited to a wider variety of devices, or if you’d prefer some AirPods to keep you on the Apple ecosystem, then you can find more of today’s best headphones deals just below.
