Know Who You're Doing Business With
Investigative Due Diligence for High-Consequence Decisions
AEGIS RSI helps investors, lenders, businesses, and advisors uncover hidden risk, verify critical claims, and understand the people and companies behind important decisions.
We've conducted investigative due diligence involving more than $800 million in assets, investments, and transaction exposure.
Because risk rarely announces itself.
It reveals itself through patterns. And those patterns only become visible when someone knows where to look.
The Aegis Advantage
A Background Check Finds Records. An Investigation Finds Context.
Finding information isn't the hard part anymore.
Understanding what it means is.
AEGIS RSI goes beyond database searches and automated reports to investigate the people, businesses, relationships, and history behind important decisions.
A lawsuit by itself may mean very little. So might a failed business, an old lien, an undisclosed company, or a discrepancy in someone's track record.
But when several seemingly unrelated findings begin pointing in the same direction, the picture can change quickly.
That's where investigative due diligence matters.
Our investigators combine public records, court research, regulatory data, open-source intelligence, business affiliations, claim verification, and investigative analysis to identify patterns that automated screening can miss.
We use AI and technology extensively to make that process faster and more efficient. But technology supports the investigation. It doesn't replace the investigator.
Every finding still has to be verified, understood in context, and evaluated by someone who knows what they're looking at.
Why AEGIS?
Investigator-Led: Every engagement is approached as an investigation, not a checklist.
Context Over Data: We don't just report what we find. We evaluate how the pieces fit together and why they may matter.
Claims Get Verified: Track records, professional histories, business affiliations, and other material representations are tested against available records.
Technology With Human Oversight: AI and investigative technology improve speed and reach while experienced investigators remain responsible for the analysis.
Decision-Ready Reporting: Findings are organized around risk so clients can understand what matters without digging through pages of raw data.
We don't look for a reason to kill a deal. We give you the information you need to understand the risk you're actually taking.
Where AEGIS Helps
Different Decisions. The Same Question.
Who are you really doing business with?
AEGIS RSI supports organizations making decisions where the people behind the transaction, company, or relationship matter just as much as the numbers.
Our investigative due diligence can be applied before capital is committed, credit is extended, a partnership is formed, an executive is hired, or a critical third party is trusted with your business.
Investment Due Diligence
Evaluate the people and businesses behind an investment before you commit capital.
We investigate sponsors, fund managers, operators, founders, principals, Co-GPs, investment targets, and other key stakeholders, including their backgrounds, business affiliations, litigation history, regulatory exposure, financial distress, reputation, and claimed track records.
Private Lending & Borrower Due Diligence
Understand who is on the other side of the loan.
AEGIS investigates borrowers, guarantors, sponsors, principals, and affiliated businesses to identify legal, financial, operational, and reputational risks that may not appear in traditional underwriting.
Executive Due Diligence
Senior positions require a different level of scrutiny.
We investigate executives, key hires, board members, and other high-trust positions to verify professional histories, identify undisclosed issues, and provide additional context beyond traditional employment screening.
Business Partner Due Diligence
A partnership can expose you to risks you didn't create.
AEGIS investigates prospective business partners, joint-venture partners, Co-GPs, counterparties, and other strategic relationships before reputations, operations, or capital become intertwined.
Vendor & Third-Party Risk
Your risk doesn't stop at your own organization.
We evaluate critical vendors, contractors, service providers, and other third parties whose financial condition, conduct, ownership, or reputation could create exposure for your business.
Investigative Research & Risk Management
Sometimes the question doesn't fit neatly into a box.
AEGIS also supports clients with targeted investigative research, claim verification, affiliated-entity mapping, reputational research, risk assessments, and other complex questions requiring more than a standard report.
Different decisions create different risks. Our job is to help you understand them before they become your problem.
