Country Partners
Worldwide network
John Earl, Roy Lakey, Simon Gordon, Graham Cushway and John Cotton cover
the political and security spectrum along with a wide range of political and
business contacts across the world.
Our Country Partners are a growing network of politicians, public servants,
ambassadors, companies and individuals who provide support and background
information on 196 countries worldwide.
Our Mission
To keep our clients briefed on political and security risk in 196 countries worldwide whilst identifying for them the business, trade and investment opportunities.
Our USP
Our political and security knowledge and networks give our clients an advantage not offered by others
Because we know and understand the political and security processes we can brief on the risks and identify the opportunities that lead to trade and investment.
Our Services
Political Risk
Political risk is defined as the risk that an investment could suffer as a result of political changes or instability in a country. That instability could be as the result of a change in government, policies, legislative bodies, social unrest or military control.
At Trade Bridge Consultants we track and analyse political activity and its likely impact on business across 196 countries for our clients.
Our service includes tracking individual countries or groups of countries where clients have a presence or providing ‘real time’ advice on countries or regions where our clients are seeking to expand their operations.
Our website also provides a ‘one stop shop’ for clients who wish to carry out their own research or keep a daily track of political activities in a country.
Our Services
Security Risk
Security Risk is often defined as any event that could result in the compromise of organisational assets.
At Trade Bridge Consultants we identify and track security risks and their likely impact on business across 196 countries for our clients.
Our service includes analysing risk in individual countries where our clients have a presence or are seeking to expand their operations. Because security risks can escalate or diminish quickly we use our network to track ongoing developments and provide up to date information as well as providing ‘real time’ reports on longer term security risks.
Our Services
Business Development Support
Identifying business development opportunities in new markets is only as good as the information gathered and the depth of data mined.
At Trade Bridge Consultants we provide a comprehensive research service utilising our in depth knowledge of government to help our clients to identify business opportunities arising from government policies.
You provide the briefing on what it is you are seeking, we data mine to prepare a business case. We work through three levels, open source information, local network sourced information and government contact information (unavailable to most businesses).
Our Services
Contact Mapping & Introductions
Who you know and what you know are the two most important elements required for the successful development of new business in new countries.
Trade Bridge Consultants provides the ‘what you know’ through our Political Risk, Security Risk and Business Development Support services. Once you have the data you require and the decision has been taken to open up a new market then it is all about who you know.
That is why Trade Bridge Consultants provide a contact mapping and introductions service. We review your business requirements, create a list of the most appropriate contacts for you to meet and then assist with the introductions; whether a politician, public servant or potential local partner.
Our Services to Government
Supporting Government Initiatives
Government can be a source of great planning and strategic thinking, but very often the turning of ideas into actions proves more difficult than expected.
Finding the right partner(s) to work with on a project or encouraging the right type of businesses to get involved in your country can be time consuming and frustrating.
Trade Bridge Consultants provides a unique service by helping government to identify suitable partners to work with on government initiatives. We also advise government on creating the ideal environment for business to invest in your country.
Our Services to Government
Supporting Government Communications
There are more than 200 governments across the world competing for the attention of potential investors. Creating the right environment to attract investors is just one part of the solution.
The other part of the solution is to get your message heard above the noise and clutter of all those other governments attempting to communicate with investors.
Trade Bridge Consultants provides a service to help government audit its external communications and to provide new and innovative solutions to improve communications with the investment community.
