Case Study

A prominent private equity firm sought ongoing, real-time insights into legal and reputational risks across its portfolio companies and executives, including pending litigation, criminal histories, and adverse media coverage.

Solution

Vcheck’s Portfolio Monitoring Platform identified a federal complaint filed in U.S. District Court against a portfolio company by a former employee. The complaint asserted claims of wrongful cancellation of vested stock options and contested the enforceability of a non-competition agreement. Our platform surfaced the alert as the soon as the complaint was filed – and before the PortCo reported it to the PE firm. Through early notification via our platform, our client was able to undertake an immediate and structured assessment of potential legal exposure.

Impact

Vcheck’s Platform provides real-time alerts across PACER (federal civil, criminal, bankruptcy), local criminal charges, adverse media in 15 languages, sanctions, watchlists, and political exposure. The platform surfaces what matters by reducing false positives by 87% compared to 10 other leading monitoring solutions. ​
