Surveillance is important to protect the privacy, assets and reputation of Ultra-High-Net-Worth Individuals (UHNWIs), who often have global investments, luxury homes, and valuable assets.
Sadly, public figures with wealth or status are increasingly vulnerable to attacks such as robbery, kidnapping and identity theft. Stalking, harassment and extortion are also dangers.
Meanwhile, high-value organisations can be the target of corporate espionage, cybercrime, and leaks of sensitive information.
Threats can come from inside or outside their immediate circle. Not even their employees or most trusted advisors can always be trusted.
By arranging constant surveillance, potential risks can be identified and mitigated, without interfering with the business, or the private life of the principal and their family.
UHNWIs care about privacy and discretion. They want to feel safe, but they don’t want security that is intrusive or disruptive. And they need to know they are protected if a crisis occurs.
Surveillance could involve physical monitoring and/or digital monitoring. It can be proactive or reactive. It’s always tailored to the risk level and personal preferences of our clients.
With active protection in place, potential attackers will be deterred, and emergencies will be dealt with professionally. And, if a security breach occurs, surveillance systems can provide valuable evidence for law enforcement.
By reducing their exposure to risk, UHNW clients can maintain their lifestyle with peace of mind and a greater sense of control.
In short, surveillance is an essential part of an overall security strategy for UHNWIs, helping to protect their personal and financial safety. Other preventative measures include putting residential security in place, and arranging secure transportation.
