Geopolitical Intelligence Services

GIS was founded in 2011 by H.S.H. Prince Michael of Liechtenstein to provide business leaders, senior managers, and policymakers with genuine and relevant, scenario-based geopolitical economic and other relevant forecasts to inform their strategic decision-making. It is not a journalistic or media product but provides intelligence. Our reports and advisory services are based on the sustained background knowledge of our experts and not on quantitative research and open sources information. This allows GIS to provide scenarios of future developments and their consequences -intended or unintended – for our customers. The purpose is to provide a basis for decisions, supported by background information. Our unique global network of experts includes former government ministers, advisors, high-ranking civil servants, including military, economists, and leading scientists. GIS reports provide insight into the geopolitical trends that are critical for decision-makers to understand. Typically, these are written by experts based in the region concerned who are able to provide the latest on the ground intelligence. Focusing on politics, defense, energy, and economics, they are published daily in English. Our experts establish possible scenarios for the future and their implications. Not influenced by popular opinion and sometimes bold and counterintuitive, these informed predictions are often stunningly accurate. We are publishing comments providing an informed viewpoint on crucial geopolitical issues, challenging and always thought-provoking. These brief commentaries take a stance that stimulates debate. GIS consulting services give our clients the edge they need to excel in international business. GIS is not affiliated with any government, corporate, or media agency. This allows us to offer uniquely independent and impartial analysis. The service is located in Liechtenstein, which guarantees wide neutrality and helps to remain impartial. Photos: Getty Images
