The Journey
Amidst an increasingly volatile landscape, Nigeria grapples with a complex set of challenges. Often, in the heart of its bustling cities and rural expanses, risks remain unseen, waiting to disrupt lives and businesses. The question has been asked repeatedly: How can Nigeria harness its abundance of human and natural resources in a way that ensures security and prosperity for all?
The Answer?
Risk Control Services
The founders of Risk Control Services recognized the fragmented approach to Nigeria’s security challenges and were driven to create a solution. Drawing on a network of professionals, we embarked on a mission to transform security management. We moved beyond the traditional, narrow focus on guard management, starting with a cutting-edge background screening platform that digitized records and introduced a rapid certificate verification portal, setting a new industry standard.
From these beginnings, Risk Control has expanded into security consulting, protective intelligence, and corporate investigations utilizing polygraph examination and computer forensics.
Driven by a vision to bridge the gap between data and real-world needs, the Nigeria Risk Index (NRI) was developed to empower travelers and investors with an understanding of the real risks they face while conducting business in Nigeria. By utilizing advanced data analytics and interactive risk mapping, NRI provides real-time security intelligence tailored to each region of Nigeria.
Together, our services provide a multi-layered approach to understanding and addressing risks in Nigeria.
