Experienced Criminalists versus Ruthless Professionals

Where the economy flourishes, companies expand and gross domestic product (GDP) grows, economic crime also tends to increase. In 2022, Rostock recorded a GDP of almost 9.8 billion euros, 1.2 billion euros more than in the previous year. International transport links by sea, air and land enable local companies to bring their goods to market promptly. On the other hand, these favourable transport connections also make it easy for perpetrators to leave crime scenes quickly and discreetly, for example after a commercial burglary. It is serious enough when valuable items such as notebooks, PCs, data carriers and similar equipment are stolen from business premises – it becomes disastrous when intellectual property is taken.

At times, the perpetrators are the company’s own employees or competitors, yet organised gangs focusing on data theft are also active. They usually steal your sensitive corporate data on behalf of a third party. Construction and production plans, supplier and sales data thus change hands, and a company in the same sector may subsequently offer the product you developed earlier and or at a lower price on the market. There is also the risk that the intruders will attempt to blackmail you with the disclosure of the data and demand substantial sums for its return. Do not let it come to that. Optimised security technology tailored specifically to your company for physical protection, IT security and the prevention of eavesdropping attacks can largely protect you from damage.

Background Checks: Applicants, Employees and Business Partners under Scrutiny

In addition to the well-known cruise port in Warnemünde, Rostock has an equally significant ferry and freight port, where around 23.2 million tonnes of goods were handled in 2013. Consequently, alongside the IT sector and the University of Rostock, shipping companies, shipyards, marine electronics firms and the crane manufacturer Liebherr are among the region’s principal employers. The highest-revenue corporation in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, with revenue of 1.7 billion euros in 2014, is the listed company Nordex SE, a manufacturer of wind turbines headquartered in Rostock.

Research and technology account for a large share of Rostock’s economy and, through their growth, provide new jobs in traditionally rather structurally weak Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. In June 2015, the district of Rostock recorded a low point in unemployment figures: at 7.5 percent, it showed the lowest rate since 1990. Around 1,000 positions were still vacant at that time. Not every applicant is suitable and unfortunately not every one is trustworthy, which is why, before appointing a potential employee to a position of responsibility, the individual’s background should be thoroughly examined. Likewise, before concluding a contract with a prospective business partner, it is advisable to subject their creditworthiness and reputation to detailed investigation in order to avoid unpleasant and potentially costly surprises. Our qualified corporate investigators in Rostock examine the individual discreetly and with the utmost care. Call us for a free consultation: +49 381 3739 0080.
