Oil Trading company dragged into a highly publicized UN bribery scandal
An oil trading company is mentioned on a list of entities and individuals implicated in bribery and kickback schemes tied to a United Nations program in the Middle East. The global dissemination of this list through news portals, forums, and blogs is raising AML/KYC compliance issues for banking partners.
What we’ve done
Identification of all publications mentioning the client’s involvement in the bribery scandal.
Identification of all backlinks reinforcing these publications.
Exhaustive investigations to identify and profile all authors and publication sources.
Strategic counsel for the implementation of the right of response with international press bodies, ensuring compliance with local laws and ethical press guidelines.
Formulation of a comprehensive response strategy aimed at reassuring banking partners and facilitating alignment with their AML/KYC protocols.
Launching confidential negotiation tactics and initiating discussions to secure the removal of the content itself, expunge the client’s name from the content, or deindex pages from search engine results.
Initiation of counter-investigations to formulate strategies discrediting the original investigation and neutralizing threat sources.
An impressive 80% of total pages have been successfully removed, all while shielding the client from any further editorial retaliation.
