Established in 1987, Commercial Intelligence (CI) has spent nearly four decades as a privately held leader in specialized dispute finance, construction claims management, and international asset recovery. We provide the capital and strategic intelligence necessary to navigate the most complex legal environments and infrastructure projects globally.

We bridge the gap between technical construction project management and financial recovery. Our multidisciplinary team is comprised of seasoned litigators, enforcement attorneys, construction experts, economists, and intelligence professionals. This unique combination allows us to manage disputes from project inception through trial, appeal, and ultimate recovery—whether dealing with FIDIC/NEC/Bespoke-based contracts or complex common law disputes.

We assess investments and enforcement opportunities across every major region, including Africa, Asia, Australia, Canada, Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, the UK, and the US. Our experience spans both civil and common law systems, ensuring we can effectively manage recoveries against diverse targets—including sovereigns on every continent.

We offer comprehensive solutions tailored to the needs of individual claimants, law firms, contractors, corporations, sovereign entities, and multilateral institutions.
