Gatekeepers

Privileged access to government ministries in Frontier economies enables Emerisk to report on processes of decision-making by senior officials. Gatekeeper profiles are given on parliamentary figures, cabinet of ministers and presidential advisors and bring clarity to markets where policy intentions may be restricted from the public domain, or simply unknown.

Local viewpoints

Gatekeeper profiles are sourced by persons with close association to the ruling government and have strong familiarity with the local market.

Understanding private viewpoints on policy objectives and personal agendas, which are often withheld from the financial press, provides invaluable instruction on the regulatory environment.

Influence strategy

Gatekeeper profiles account for the influence a specific personality may enjoy with the ruling government, and their specific interests in the private sector. Judgment is also given on their accessibility to foreign investors and the most appropriate means of contact. Such insight can be used to improve counterparty negotiations and advance the deal cycle.

Indigenous sourcing

Emerisk offers the only fully-indigenous sourced intelligence on the new economies of the Former Soviet Union, Southeast Europe, South Asia and Africa. Clients may request specific Gatekeeper profiles on a confidential basis for all emerging markets worldwide.
