Boards of directors and management teams need constant updates on changes and developments in their business environment. They need to stay informed of events related to competitors; media mentions of their company; the discourse on social media surrounding their industry and its key players; relevant regulatory, technological, and other trends in the company's field; new opportunities; macroeconomic and geopolitical trends; and more.
While every executive and director makes an effort to keep pace with the news and developments, they may often obtain only partial or disorganized information. This leaves them vulnerable to the risk of missing an important piece of information and failing to identify emerging risks and new opportunities in time.
BDO Israel's Competitive Intelligence, R&A and Trends Unit provides management and board members with periodic reports – daily, weekly, or monthly. These reports present a "360-degree" overview of new information in relevant areas of interest, based on exhaustive coverage of business and legal databases, media items, new information posted online, following the conversation on social media, analysis of competitors’ websites, and more. The unit creates boutique, non-generic reports that are comprehensive but concise, tailored precisely to each company, written by experienced analysts aided by advanced information-gathering methods and tools.
