About us | Cedar Rose

Deliver compliant client onboarding with structured company and individual data.

Global advisory work often involves fragmented public records, opaque ownership structures, and documentation inconsistencies that make verification difficult. These gaps can expose firms to sanctions violations, reputational harm, or flawed legal conclusions. Cedar Rose provides structured, cross-checked intelligence from trusted registries, multilingual research, and regional networks. Our insight helps advisors evaluate clients, counterparties, and transactions with clarity while meeting AML, KYC, and professional-regulation standards.

Verified Cross-Border Intelligence That Strengthens Advisory Decisions and Compliance

Professional and legal advisors depend on accurate, defensible information to make decisions that hold up in regulatory, commercial, and judicial environments. Whether onboarding a client, assessing a counterparty, or evaluating a cross-border transaction, verified intelligence is essential. Cedar Rose delivers multilingual data and structured insight that reduce advisory risk, strengthen compliance, and support confident decision-making.

KYB & Client Onboarding

Comprehensive verification of registration, licensing, governance, and ownership ensures that advisory firms engage only with legitimate entities. By identifying shell companies, fraudulent intermediaries, or undisclosed beneficial owners, this insight strengthens compliance processes and reduces legal exposure during onboarding or matter-intake review.

Corporate Linkage & UBO Mapping

Ownership mapping reveals indirect control relationships, holding structures, and cross-border affiliations that shape legal strategy and compliance decisions. This clarity helps advisors assess influence, identify conflicts of interest, and understand how complex networks may affect litigation, negotiations, or regulatory filings.

Sanctions, PEP & Adverse Media Screening

Screening across global watchlists, political exposure databases, and multilingual reputational media highlights corruption allegations, sanctions risk, or credibility concerns. These insights help firms avoid clients or counterparties who may compromise regulatory compliance, litigation strategy, or professional-ethics obligations.

Credit Risk Assessment

Financial diagnostics including credit scoring, payment behaviour, and operational stability indicators help firms evaluate whether clients or counterparties pose financial-risk concerns. This insight informs M&A due diligence, litigation planning, restructuring work, and commercial negotiations requiring objective financial clarity.

Investigative Due Diligence

Human-led investigations uncover litigation histories, reputational issues, political associations, undisclosed relationships, and risks not visible in public records. This level of scrutiny supports sensitive transactions, complex disputes, regulatory engagements, and high-stakes commercial or cross-border advisory assignments.

Monitoring & Alerts

Continuous tracking identifies changes in ownership, financial health, sanctions exposure, legal standing, or reputational status across existing clients and counterparties. Automated alerts empower advisors to react quickly, maintain compliance, and manage long-term advisory risk across active mandates.

MEA Regional Expertise

Extensive regional intelligence across the Middle East, Africa, and frontier markets provides reliable insight where records are limited or inconsistent. Multilingual analysts and local research channels validate key information, supporting firms handling cross-border disputes, regulatory matters, or complex commercial transactions.

Enhanced Integrity Due Diligence

Advanced investigations combine legal review, ownership validation, reputational assessment, and political-risk analysis. This intelligence is critical for high-risk clients, major transactions, internal investigations, and litigation matters requiring defensible, evidence-based conclusions in opaque or complex jurisdictions.

Due Diligence Risk Score

A unified score summarises financial, legal, compliance, ownership, and reputational indicators into a single comparable measure. This rating supports consistent evaluation across multi-jurisdictional matters, enabling firms to benchmark risk and prioritise deeper review for sensitive engagements or high-value transactions.

Don’t Let Unreliable Data Derail Your Growth!

Incomplete unreliable data and limited risk visibility don't just slow your company down; they actively sabotage its growth. Without comprehensive standardised, reliable quality data, you expose your business to unnecessary risks which complicate your ability to analyse the market landscape, and develop effective strategies.

Worse yet, compliance missteps, especially in new markets, can lead to costly fines that stifle your growth and tarnish your reputation. All this is also compounded by slow, manual processes that leave you scrambling to keep up, ultimately costing you deals, partnerships, and valuable time.

The thing is, high growth often means high-risk exposure, and the only way to navigate risk is through data. When harnessed correctly, data serves as your north star, guiding you through the maze of growth.
