International Background Checks and Investigations

Principle Subject Matter Expert: Jim Harris

International background checks are typically more intensive due to the fact that databases that exist in the United States simply do not exist in many second and third world countries. Even in some first world countries, use of databases, which is common in the United States, is highly restricted and not accessible by private investigators. McCann Global’s global network of current and former law enforcement and military contacts are able to obtain information that others simply cannot. McCann Global also has an extensive global network of senior business executives in cities around the world who help us to find out who you are looking to hire or do business with.

McCann Global principals have served overseas in senior law enforcement positions. Their network of former colleagues is from regions as diverse as China to Columbia. This network can uncover what is not easily known. This network allows McCann Global to do the “ground work” in a cost effective manner for our clients. McCann Global principals have performed hundreds of international investigations and onsite security services including Olympic Security for companies and their executives. The McCann Global network includes former United Nations security officials, former Drug Enforcement Agency officials, and former senior intelligence officials. Let McCann Global find out what you need to know about your potential employee or international business partner.
