Due Diligence in Venezuela

CICPC (Scientific, Criminal and Criminalistics Investigations Corps) is the authoritative source of criminal records in Venezuela. It verifies the existence of open cases, convictions and arrest warrants. It is the starting point of any serious corporate due diligence.

It is a writing methodology that presents findings as evidence leading to a conclusion, without making direct accusations. It allows the reader to reach the same conclusion as the analyst based on documented facts. It is especially important in legally sensitive contexts like Venezuela.

Findings are reported to the client confidentially and in an organized manner. CSSG does not contact or alert the person being investigated. The client decides how to act on the information. Our role is to provide intelligence; the action role belongs to the client.

Yes. We verify natural persons (employees, partners, executives) and legal entities (supplier companies, business partners, transaction counterparties). For companies we include RIF verification, Mercantile Registry, tax clearances and verification of links to state-owned enterprises.

Depends on the level contracted: between 2 and 15 business days. To start we need full name and ID number (or RIF for companies). All communication takes place through secure channels agreed with the client.

No. CSSG verifies the background, integrity, reputation and connections of individuals and companies. The legal assessment of contracts and the accounting or financial audit belong to your legal and financial advisers; our report gives them the verified facts for that assessment.
