Due Diligence

Our Testimonials

GK Political provides political due diligence, advisory and engagement services to investment professionals.

We understand how policy impacts current and potential investments in highly regulated or government influenced markets. We use this knowledge to help investors better understand their exposure to political developments and regulatory trends in markets such as health, education, gambling, leisure, transport, energy and financial services.


The political due diligence process:

  • Step 1:

    Analyse key political concerns impacting upon a specific market and develop a full project scope in conjunction with client

  • Step 2:

    Identify and interview relevant political figures across government, parliament, the civil service and third parties who influence and shape policy

  • Step 3:

    Produce a full written report analysing political developments and presenting potential future scenarios in policy making

  • Step 4:

    Ongoing intelligence gathering and support

This process typically takes between 5 and 30 days, depending on the scope and scale of the project.
