 The advent of thirty years of international criminal investigation and the transition to the private sector continues to enhance the network I have developed. This has not been a random collection of business cards of public, private and academic employees, but a deliberate creation of a network with the same levels of passion to disrupt and displace the activity of organised crime and to inflict as much financial inconvenience on them as possible.  Disrupting and displacing the activities of organised crime require the coordination of many disciplines and to be effective to identification of the right expertise and experience within those disciplines. The Murinbin Group has the network you need when you are ready to take steps to insulate your organisation against reputation and regulatory risk organised crime can present. 

 Transnational crime have a high regard for risk , higher than a majority of businesses. It is for this reason that organised crime have undertaken the diversity they have in recent times infiltrating existing business supply chains and creating their own masking their profits via Trade Based Money Laundering (TBML). In their eyes such activity exposes them to less risk than that activity associated with traditional transnational organised crime, with comparable financial returns.   Importantly, the risk which is meaningful to transnational organised crime is often not the same risk meaningful to business and failure to understand this subtlety is likely to have a significant impact on the reputation of the business that has been targeted.  Understanding the difference in the risk paradigms and putting in place timely strategies to disrupt and displace this activity takes skills and experience that needs to have been developed over long periods of time.  These skills are a strength of The Murinbin Group  who has additional expertise in strategic reviews of controls designed to mitigate and disrupt activities such as extortion, corruption, terrorism and theft in supply and value chains. Knowing the criminal mind and the level of effort they are prepared to go to achieve their goals is crucial to success.  This understanding cannot be successfully taught, it must be experienced and any complacency in this regard will lead to ineffective apportion of often very precious resources.  A comprehensive understanding of the operating environment (both commodity and finance), an appropriate suite of policies to manage culture and risk, well run project management  and continual vigilance, whilst not capable of eliminating criminal activity, will increase the level of risk to criminal groups enough to convince them to focus on softer targets elsewhere. 

 The successful and efficient; compilation of complex criminal and civil  briefs of evidence; auditing of existing practice and procedure to identify vulnerabilities; the creation and implementation of new systems both manual and electronic; and, development of comprehensive and workable policy, when linked to disruption and displacement of criminal activity, all require a comprehensive understanding of project management.  Not only the understanding of the inherent risks of success of the project itself, be it small or large, but also an understanding of the impact on external forces that may result from such a project.  Many projects are successful in delivery when measured against their scope however a much lesser percentage achieve the outcomes their creation was meant to address. The Murinbin Group bring a proven level of project management that understands and meets both criteria because of our understanding on how criminal actors behave.
