Philippine Strategic Associates (PSA)

What Philippine Strategic Associates (PSA) does

Philippine Strategic Associates (PSA), operating commercially as PSA Intelligence, is a Manila-headquartered business intelligence and risk consulting firm focused on the Philippines and broader APAC region. Founded in 2000 as PSA Philippines Consultancy Inc. and rebranded in 2024 under PSA Intelligence Pte. Ltd. (Singapore, UEN: 202554667D), the firm combines on-the-ground human intelligence (HUMINT) networks with multi-source verification and domain research to deliver actionable intelligence on political, security, economic, cyber, and regulatory developments affecting enterprise clients.

The company's offering sits in two interconnected lines: a subscription-based Business Intelligence product suite (Weekly Briefs, Real Time Alerts, Cyber Risk Briefs, Crime & Kidnapping Reports, Terrorism & Insurgency Reports, Legislative Tracking, Health Risk Briefs, and Industry Monitors) delivered through a dedicated reports portal, and bespoke Risk Consulting services (Enterprise Security Risk Management, Market Entry Research, Integrity Due Diligence, Crisis Management, Corporate Research, and Strategic Risk Advisory). Distribution is sales-led and enterprise-focused, with a consultation-first motion and quote-based pricing under multi-year contracts; services are delivered through direct engagement rather than channel partners. The firm holds the registered "PSA Intelligence" trademark and has co-developed a Voluntary Principles on Security and Human Rights toolkit with Stratos.

PSA serves 350+ organizations across six verticals — Mining & Resources, Energy & Power, Development Agencies & Foreign Embassies, Business Process Outsourcing, Manufacturing, and Financial Services — with a 32-person team operating from Makati City (primary operating office) and Singapore (regional headquarters). Leadership is anchored by CEO Nicholas de Jong (Singapore) and Managing Director Graeme Campbell (Philippines), supported by an advisory bench that includes former Philippine defense officials, U.S. Diplomatic Security Service veterans, and Indo-Pacific security specialists. Ownership remains founder/management-controlled with no external investment or acquisition activity disclosed.
