In the current era of globalization,
companies are rapidly expanding their reach and their risks. In many of
the world's danger zones such as the Middle East, Central and South
America and South Asia - kidnapping is a growth industry...
SCG is an innovative leader in this field. We
have a perfect record of 100% safe recovery and repatriation. SCG staff
includes over 200 specialists from around the globe with experience
ranging from law enforcement, intelligence gathering and negotiations
to linguists, diplomacy and international law. Our approach is
two-pronged--Prevention and Response.
PREVENTION:
We aim to deploy our global Kidnap Incident Team
to our client within 24 hours. The SCG team of experienced consultants
will evaluate circumstances, advise on options, explain sequence of

RESPONSE:
- Evaluate the circumstances
surrounding the kidnap
- Explain the likely sequence of
future events
- Advise on effective negotiation
strategies to successfully resolve the kidnap - our consultants have
extensive experience advising on the most appropriate response to
abductor threats, demands and tactics
- Advise on the management of the
agendas of all interested parties - including the victim, family and
friends, employers, the media, governments and law enforcement
agencies. We assist in bringing order and a decision making structure
to what is frequently a stressful and emotionally-charged situation
- Provide support for the victim's
family throughout the kidnap by highlighting likely emotional reactions
to captivity and release to better prepare the family, friends and
colleagues

after release. Victims often experience anger, guilt or shame after
coming home. SCG can assist referring counselors specializing in
abduction/hostage therapy to the family and victim to aid in their
emotional recovery

advisors to those managing the incident. Consultants in the field are
supported by a dedicated team of researchers, attorneys and specialists
based in Virginia providing relevant antecedent information.
