Norwegian Risk Consulting International - NRCI - is a geopolitical risk consultancy founded in 2010. Our main office is located in Oslo. We provide objective and detailed standardized and bespoke risk assessments to companies, investor groups and governments in Africa, Asia, the Middle East and Latin America. Our operational and strategic advisory services inform our clients with valuable insights. Norwegian Risk Forum is NRCI’s annual international conference in Oslo examining geopolitical risks and international business.
NRCI’s respect for people and zero-tolerance against racism, harassment and bullying permeate our work culture and environment. We respect and support each other across all levels. Our strong focus on feedback drives our creativity and innovative thinking about analysis, business development, technological innovation and personnel development. Our focused work environment drives our attention to detail while we simultaneously maintain a robust and overarching global perspective. We approach our work in a humble, curious and listening manner. New team members enter into a welcoming and inclusive work environment where our values: Out of the box, professional, challenge and humane form NRCI’s company and work culture. Our analyst team conducts all research and analysis through a rigorous quality assurance process ensuring that our risk analyses maintain a high standard.
NRCI’s geopolitical thinking rests on a solid grasp of on-the-ground issues through a global network of partners and local contacts on the ground and NRCI’s CEO conducts regular fact-finding expeditions to map risks, infrastructure developments and business opportunities. This enables close contact with local communities, tribes and stake holders and good overview of infrastructure developments, business structures and security dynamics. We maintain a dedicated focus on analysis through a rigorous research and analysis process. We avoid group thinking and bombastic conclusions and instead we nurture and listen to differing opinions and constantly question our own thoughts. We maintain dialogue with leading analysts and institutions around the world and share our observations and perspectives with a broad range of international players. These structures and channels inform how we think and work together.
NRCI works with clients from all business sectors and industries, investor groups, financial firms, wealthy families, NGOs and governments. We interact closely with our clients to facilitate and support their operations in changing and unpredictable risk environments to minimize risk impact and create value. Due to the serious nature of our work we communicate directly and openly with respect when we interact with clients to mitigate risks and facilitate robust and resilient organizations. NRCI works with clients worldwide and support our clients in our geographic regions of expertise - Africa, Asia, the Middle East and Latin America.
Our work with clients includes discretion and low profile. We listen closely to our clients and through close dialogue we define clear goals and then agree on how we want to reach those goals.
