PRIVATE WEALTH DUE DILIGENCE
Protect family capital and reputation by verifying co-investors and cross-border structures.
Single and multi-family offices manage concentrated capital across private deals, offshore trusts, and co-investment syndicates. Relying on personal introductions without independent diligence exposes families to tainted counterparties, hidden conflicts, and treasury wire diversion schemes. Diliguard delivers discreet, institutional-grade diligence to protect family wealth and standing.
Informal trust is no substitute for independent due diligence
Family offices frequently invest alongside trusted industry sponsors in fast-moving private deals. However, when co-investment vehicles are structured through layered offshore holding entities, informal references cannot uncover hidden sanctioned stakeholders or previous fund mismanagement.
Furthermore, family office treasury teams represent prime targets for sophisticated business email compromise and wire redirection schemes during closing windows. Diliguard provides instantaneous corporate unwrapping and payment risk verification directly to your investment committee.

Screen deal sponsors, co-investors, and wealth advisers against global watchlists, asset freeze registers, and litigation dockets.
- Screen names and aliases with AML & PEP Screening.
- Investigate sponsor history via Executive Person Trace.
- Vet service providers with Vendor Risk Management.
3. Treasury Protection & Wire Verification
Shield family office accounts from impersonation fraud, modified wire instructions, and unauthorized capital releases.
- Evaluate transfer security using Transaction Risk Scoring.
- Detect spoofed IP telemetry via IP Intelligence.
- Harden payment approval with Fraud Prevention Controls.
The Opaque Co-Investment Syndicate
A single-family office was invited by a prominent fund manager to participate in a £12M private debt syndicate through an offshore SPV. Days before capital call execution, updated wire instructions arrived via email.
The family office investment team enters the sponsor entity, SPV, and key stakeholders into Diliguard.
Registry search unwinds intermediate holding layers, revealing an undisclosed 35% controller behind the vehicle.
Executive trace flags prior fraud litigation, while IP telemetry confirms the updated wire notice came from a compromised server.
The office halts the £12M wire transfer, preventing total capital loss and safeguarding family reputation.
