Why True North?
True North was founded to fill a critical gap in the integrity and compliance landscape, the need for independent, accessible, and context-aware and affordable support for organizations operating in complex environments.
Large firms often bring high fees and limited field flexibility. True North offers a different model, experienced investigators and compliance professionals based in the US, Africa, Latin America and Asia, operating at global standards but without global-firm overhead.
Our proximity to the field allows us to deploy quickly, work efficiently, and deliver practical, high-impact results at a fraction of the cost of traditional providers.
We believe integrity isn’t just a policy; it’s a culture — one that should be achievable for every organization, regardless of size or budget.
Why You Can Trust Us
True North is comprised of internationally experienced professionals with backgrounds in investigations, compliance, and governance across the nonprofit, development, and private sectors.
Collectively, our team has held key roles in and consulted for major international NGOs, Fortune 500 corporations, government and military contractors, and global development institutions, leading and advising on complex investigations and compliance initiatives across the US, Latin America, Africa, the Middle East, and South Asia.
This blend of corporate rigor and humanitarian understanding allows True North to deliver independent, discreet, and culturally aware integrity support — combining global standards with regional insight to help organizations manage risk and uphold accountability.
