EU defence policy & procurement integrity
EU defence policy and procurement integrity advisory
Defence and dual-use organisations need to understand the policy context behind commercial decisions as well as the integrity expectations surrounding procurement. MK Global Advisory & Investigations provides EU defence policy analysis, regulatory intelligence and strategic guidance from London. We help companies interpret institutional developments, evaluate relevant information and examine the governance of prospective partnerships.
Why work with us
Melpomeni Kalliri worked within the EU institutions on foreign affairs and security and defence policy, with a particular focus on EU–Canada relations. She also brings forensic accounting qualifications and experience in banking and energy economics. This background informs policy analysis and integrity reviews without implying a current institutional appointment or privileged access to decision-makers.
