Serious Intel.
Carratu International helps clients establish facts, identify risk indicators and understand the context behind people, companies, relationships, claims and digital threats.
Our approach is carefully scoped around the decision, the questions that matter and the level of risk involved.
Led by experience
Managed by Alexander Moore.
Carratu International is led by Alexander Moore, with 35 years of experience as an intelligence contractor across Legal, Defence, Banking, Energy, Pharmaceuticals, Mining and Private Client ecosystems. He has experience in many high-profile and extensive projects across multiple jurisdictions.
His background shapes a practical approach: careful scoping, source evaluation, human judgement and clear reporting for decisions where uncertainty carries real consequence.
What this means for clients
- Research is structured around the decision, not general circumstances.
- Sources are assessed in combination rather than relied upon in isolation.
- Reports separate established facts, relevant indicators and core data sets.
Private client services
Personal matters deserve professional handling.
Background and personal information concerns can carry serious emotional, financial and reputational consequences.
Carratu International approaches private client matters with confidentiality, sensitivity, careful scoping, compliant and proportionate research, and clear reporting of the facts.
Initial enquiries can be kept brief. We will first consider suitability, proportionality and the most appropriate next step.
Our approach
From uncertainty to a clearer decision.
Understand
We identify the decision, concerns and questions that actually matter.
Scope
We define compliant, proportionate lines of enquiry and agree what the enquiry should establish.
Research
We examine relevant open sources, records and information within the agreed scope.
Report
Findings distinguish established facts, relevant indicators, context and limitations.
Confidential enquiry
Tell us what you need.
A short initial summary is enough. We can then consider whether the matter appears suitable and what a proportionate next step could involve.
Please avoid sending sensitive documents in the first message. We can agree an appropriate method for handling further material if the matter proceeds.
