Kidnap & Ransom Support
Businesses live with an ever-present threat of attack by terrorists with a political agenda, or criminals operating for profit - kidnap, extortion, sabotage and product contamination are all real dangers. Organisations with employees based overseas are especially vulnerable to kidnap and ransom demands, as are high-profile executives who work with confidential information or those dealing with large amounts of cash for commercial, government or charity organisations.
CSi specialises in providing kidnap and ransom advice. Our team has first-hand experience of handling hostage and extortion negotiations, designing prevention measures and identifying risk for a range of diverse organisations in the private and public sectors, both in the UK and abroad. Our kidnap and ransom prevention, response and support services include:
- Training crisis management teams in hostage negotiation techniques
- Designing crisis management, continuity and contingency policies
- Helping individuals and organisations prevent kidnap
- Training for high threat environments and overseas locations
- Liaison with local officials and foreign governments
- Professional support for the hostage’s colleagues and family during the crisis.
