G3 Good Governance Group

What G3 Good Governance Group does

G3 Good Governance Group is a London-headquartered global advisory firm founded in 2004 as a spinoff from the largest intelligence firm of the time, operating three service lines: Strategic Intelligence, Investigations and Disputes, and Cyber Advisory. The firm's core technology is a proprietary global human-source intelligence network cultivated over 20+ years, providing access to information in almost every country through contacts in government, regulatory bodies, and business communities. G3 also maintains an unparalleled dark web investigation capability underpinning its cyber advisory work and uses comprehensive investigative toolkits for cross-border asset tracing, ultimate beneficial owner identification, and recoverability assessments.

G3 serves a concentrated enterprise client base that includes 7 of the 10 largest Western banks, 9 of the 10 largest global investment funds, and 19 of the 20 largest global law firms by revenue, alongside Fortune 50 corporates and sovereign wealth and pension funds. Revenue is generated through bespoke, project-based professional services engagements priced by scope, complexity, and duration, typically structured as multi-year contracts or retainer arrangements (Tokyo runs 50-60 projects annually on retainer). The go-to-market is exclusively direct, senior-led engagement with C-suite and deal-team stakeholders, supported by regional offices in New York, San Francisco, Singapore, Tokyo, and Abu Dhabi. The firm operates with 101-250 employees, executed 1,000+ projects in the trailing 12 months, and delivered $40bn+ in award value through dispute-related investigations.
