Since 1983, SIP has offered confidential services to HNW individuals, corporate executives, politicians, judges,celebrities, and other VIPs. The scope of services includes locating ancient artefacts and collectibles, identifying those behind extortion attempts and gathering strong evidence for a satisfactory resolution, managing domestic investigations, providing close protection or supporting in-house close protection with physical counter-surveillance teams and technical surveillance counter-measures (TSCM), as well as delivering 24/7 real-time online threat assessment intelligence, in-depth background checks, other intelligence reports, and reputation management.
When it comes to HNW entrepreneurs, at SIP, we recognise that transforming their innovative ideas into profitable outcomes often requires a distinctive high-performance strategic approach to acquire the intelligence or assets they need. We have both the experience and flexibility to meet their objectives.
HNW – VIP Concierge Services We Provide
SIP delivers specialised global investigation services designed to support corporate organisations, legal professionals, and private clients worldwide. With decades of international experience, advanced intelligence tools, and discreet investigative strategies, our teams provide accurate insights, asset recovery solutions, and strategic protection across complex cross-border matters.
Travel Protection & Security Team Support
HNW individuals and other VIPs are most vulnerable to attack when travelling, facing risks of personal harm or perpetrators seeking intelligence about their associations or business dealings. This is where SIP can provide vital support services to its existing security teams, ensuring the client’s safety and safeguarding their activities and business interests from leaks.
These services often begin with a reconnaissance of the intended accommodation and other social and business venues to be visited, to evaluate ease of access, CCTV coverage, local roadworks, travel times between sites, and other pertinent factors. This is followed by Technical Surveillance Countermeasures (TSCM) the day before the visit at the hotel or other location, as well as any private jet or yacht charters, to ensure no illicit devices have been installed to monitor sensitive conversations. Both before travel and throughout the journey, we engage in 24/7 proactive risk management, maintain an active intelligence feed to the emergency response team, and provide secure transport to safeguard personnel and media awareness during international travel.
If you’re planning a trip and wish to have the protection you deserve, contact SIP today.
Yacht & Aircraft TSCM Pre-Travel TSCM Check
Numerous agencies provide TSCM services, and their performance may be acceptable for residences or commercial premises; however, very few possess the expertise required for TSCM on corporate aircraft and
super yachts. At SIP, we are proud to say that our head of TSCM has, over the past 20 years, gained extensive experience in this area and is certified airside by ESSIMA to FAA & EASA standards, have conducted TSCM on many aircraft including but not limited to:

Blackmail & Extortion Investigation & Resolution
You might wonder why someone would opt for SIP instead of contacting the police if they are being blackmailed or extorted. We are the first to admit that, in most cases, alerting the police is the right course, especially if there is a threat to life or a kidnapping. We can only refer to many cases we have managed where high-net-worth individuals and celebrities have approached us when facing substantial financial demands. Their view has been that if they go to the police, there is a high risk of information being leaked to the press, and even if the allegations are false, the media exposure could still harm their reputation.
At SIP, our success in these cases has been exemplary, as they have always been resolved to our clients’ satisfaction following SIP investigations and through carefully worded documentation, where a contract is signed between the perpetrators and SIP, in exchange for a very nominal payment, and their surrender of all their digital devices and other relevant materials, which prevents them from attempting to repeat the exercise later.
Know Who You’re Meeting, Pre-Background Check
There is often a significant gap between the person you believe you know and the actual fact that SIP can discover through compliant open-source and closed-source intelligence and surveillance. In personal and business relationships today, as well as with entities offering investment opportunities, you can never fully trust people at face value, since statistics show a sharp rise in reported fraud, scams, blackmail, and mental or physical abuse. Therefore, it is always prudent to contact SIP to obtain the intelligence you need to make an informed decision before proceeding with further arrangements, reducing the risk of becoming the next victim.
Locating Passion & Investment Collectables
Over the past decade, SIP has noticed a rising demand from clients for unique passion assets that either connect to personal collectible interests or complement their financial portfolios, which are increasingly preferred for diversification, especially as a hedge against inflation. In both cases, it provides both potential appreciation and emotional satisfaction. SIP has a proven track record of meeting clients’ needs through a mix of online research from the surface, deep and dark web chatrooms, specialised marketplace searches, and exploration of local, niche venues. No matter what you desire to own, whether fine art, rare wines, missing, or highly significant historical artefacts or any other items, contact SIP today.
