Kroll New Designations Reinforce Data Insights And Forensics Practice expansion

KUALA LUMPUR, April 19 (Bernama) -- Kroll, the leading independent provider of global risk and financial advisory solutions, announced the expansion of its Data Insights and Forensics practice following three new appointments.

Haydn Jones joins the firm as Managing Director and Global Lead of Blockchain and Crypto solutions in London; Torsten Duwenhorst joins as Managing Director and Regional Asia Pacific lead in Singapore; and Regis Pereira joins to lead the expansion of the Latin America team in Brazil.

In a statement, its Data Insights and Forensics practice Managing Director and Global Leader, Andy Gandhi said: “As new risks relentlessly emerge with each new technology, we continue to grow our team with experts who are uniquely positioned to identify and address these challenges and complement our existing professionals who support clients in an increasingly regulated environment.

“Kroll’s continued investment in prioritising expertise and accelerating innovation will position us to continue to build on a digital investigation suite that addresses complex compliance, regulatory and legal issues for a growing number of organisations and use cases.”

Data risk is a growing concern for multinational companies, and it is becoming increasingly critical to not only have deliberate global delivery capabilities, but also to complement the capabilities with local jurisdictional knowledge.

Kroll recognises the importance of this and has made investments to expand across Europe, Asia Pacific and Latin America.

The additions of Jones, Duwenhorst and Pereira strengthen the firm’s collective ability to map regional technology and data issues with the global intent of Kroll customers.

They bring their regional knowledge, respectively, as well as decades of experience in technology and forensic data analytics across multiple sectors, leveraging a profound track record of advisory across crypto, blockchain and financial services risks.
