Priority International provides specialist investigative research, asset tracing, background investigations and cross-border investigative support throughout the United Kingdom, Ireland and internationally.
We work with professional investigation agencies, legal practitioners, financial advisers and corporate clients, providing reliable information, experienced investigative resources and professionally managed assignments across multiple jurisdictions.
Whether an enquiry involves a single jurisdiction or requires coordinated international research, we assess the available options, establish a clear scope of work and deliver practical investigative support tailored to the assignment.
Corporate & Background Research
We undertake corporate and individual background investigations, including company ownership enquiries, corporate associations, directorships, business interests and jurisdiction-specific public records research.
Our investigations can support commercial decision-making, litigation, financial enquiries and other legitimate investigative requirements. Research is undertaken within the legal and practical limitations of the relevant jurisdiction, with findings presented in clear, structured reports.
Asset Tracing & Financial Investigations
We conduct investigative research to identify assets, business interests and financial associations involving individuals and corporate entities.
Assignments may include property ownership enquiries, corporate holdings, directorships, identifiable financial interests and other available records relevant to asset identification and potential recovery proceedings.
We work with investigation agencies, legal professionals and other authorised clients requiring asset-related intelligence in the UK, Ireland or internationally.
People Tracing & Locate Enquiries
Our tracing services cover individuals, debtors, witnesses, heirs and beneficiaries across the UK, Ireland and internationally.
We combine available public records, investigative research and jurisdiction-specific resources to establish current whereabouts or develop reliable information concerning an individual’s location.
The approach depends on the circumstances, available starting information and applicable legal requirements. We assess each enquiry before proceeding to establish whether the proposed investigation is appropriate and achievable.
Open-Source Intelligence & Investigative Research
We undertake structured open-source intelligence (OSINT) investigations using publicly available information, digital research techniques and relevant jurisdiction-specific sources.
Assignments may involve online footprint analysis, corporate and individual associations, social media research, digital profiling and the development of investigative leads.
Information is evaluated, cross-referenced and presented in a structured format, with appropriate distinction between verified findings and information requiring further corroboration.
Litigation & Cross-Border Investigative Support
We provide investigative assistance in connection with litigation, fraud-related enquiries, asset recovery matters and investigations involving multiple jurisdictions.
Our services may include records research, background enquiries, witness and subject tracing, corporate investigations and coordination of jurisdiction-specific investigative work.
Through our established international network, we can manage assignments requiring local investigative resources while maintaining a consistent approach to reporting, communication and case management.
Support that fits the matter
Investigative assignments rarely fit neatly into a single category. An asset tracing enquiry may require corporate research, while a tracing assignment may develop into a wider investigation involving several jurisdictions.
We assess each enquiry individually, identify the available investigative options and agree an appropriate scope of work before proceeding.
Whether working directly with a client or supporting another investigation agency, our approach is designed to provide practical, proportionate and professionally managed investigative assistance.
Straightforward to instruct
Assignments are undertaken under agreed contractual terms, with electronic documentation designed to keep matters moving efficiently.
We can invoice in GBP, USD or EUR, with domestic US wire transfer facilities available for American clients.
Reports are delivered in Microsoft Word format, allowing professional clients to incorporate findings into their own reporting where appropriate.
