Business Intelligence: know the market, achieve success.

Mc Geopolicy

Mission

Where to invest? What are the risks that a company could face if it invests in a certain territory? Responding to these needs is the mission of MC Geopolicy. The world is increasingly complex, changing and contradictory; rules, parameters and reference points consolidated in recent decades are losing value or are being called into question. Due to these changes, it is important that a company receives the right advice on where to invest and on other issues of fundamental importance to the security of the business. MC Geopolicy aspires to assist you and your business to make the right choices in politics, business and investments.

Vision

At MC Geopolicy, we believe that a new international order is emerging, with new major players starting to influence the world stage and its markets. We are convinced that the current international political-economic debate and the mass media are too inclined to offer not reality, but mere representations of the latter, resulting in highly misleading situations. MC Geopolicy, on the other hand, despite being ready to best assist companies in their activities, offers its customers, if necessary, unpleasant truths, dissuading them from choices that it believes could prove risky and harmful. Truth, first of all. MC Geopolicy is a window onto reality.
