Case No. 1

One of the US Companies for whom we are conducting Background Screening on a regular basis had referred a case for check among many others.

Our research showed that the educational institutions from which the candidate was supposed to have passed out, in fact did not exist at all.

Case No. 2

One of the World’s leading electrical appliances MNC wanted to appoint a distributor for their products in an uptown market in a hurry. the distributor was already a distributor for many other competing brands and seemed to have a very good standing in the market.

While the Marketing department wanted the distributor appointed immediately (so as to catch the market during the forthcoming festive reason), the legal department wanted us to run a check on the proposed distributor.

Our investigations found that the proposed distributor had set himself up in the town only in the previous year. We also found that they had been appointed ‘distributor’ by other rival brands only recently. Our discreet enquiry with the banker also revealed that all may not be well. Considering all these we recommended that the ‘distributor’ should not be appointed. However, on the insistence by the Sales Department the ‘distributor’ was appointed. The ‘distributor’ quietly disappeared with all the stock (including the other brands) and simultaneously filed for insolvency.
