Advisory Services
Access to BIA’s team of Behavioral Analysis Experts
BIA Experts work with your investment team to devise an interview strategy for the meeting and to formulate specific questions based on your investment thesis, existing insights and conceptual areas of concern.
A BIA Expert participates in the management meeting or call, to the extent requested by client. In real-time, our Expert can provide behavioral insights, identify areas to probe for greater clarity and formulate follow-up questions. Post meeting, BIA will also provide a written behavioral analysis and debrief, providing focus areas for follow-on conversations.
Each client advisory meeting with a BIA Expert is unique and proprietary, ensuring confidential and highly customized strategic advice based on individual client needs and investment approach.
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, BIA has been working with institutional investors, venture capital firms, private equity firms, and other entities since, helping them gain unique insights by using our approach.
