BIA's proprietary TBA methodology incorporates the psychology of how people disclose information. Applying the BIA methodology enables you to formulate more strategic questions and ask questions in unpredictable and non-confrontational ways to avoid repetitive and rehearsed answers. The methodology results give a clearer understanding of management’s true level of confidence to close information gaps.
BIA looks at management disclosures through a different lens, using behavioral analysis to yield new insight into management's level of conviction and concerns on a range of topics. You can then make more informed decisions based on the BIA assessment of the completeness and responsiveness of management statements.

BIA's proprietary Tactical Behavior Assessment methodology was derived from the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and is used to identify language and behavioral cues that indicate when an individual isn't being entirely candid. Founded in 2001 on the principle that methodologies originally developed for the national intelligence community could be powerfully applied to the private sector, we've been working with institutional investors, venture capital firms, private equity firms, and other entities since, helping them gain unique insights by using our approach.
