Personal and Executive Protection

Clients usually come to us for one of four reasons. There is a concrete threat, such as a message, information from a reliable source or an earlier incident. Their public profile has grown through media coverage, a contested decision or activist attention. They are travelling somewhere with a history of kidnapping, active conflict or weak local policing. Or they are going through a difficult period: a dispute, a court case, a dismissal or a restructuring.

Not every situation needs a full team. A threat assessment, done before anything is deployed, shows whether you need one CPO, a driver and officer together, a review of your home security, or a team working in shifts. Too much protection costs money and draws attention. Too little is dangerous. The assessment settles which is which.

We also carry out threat assessments as a separate service. You are under no obligation to go further. The point is to give you an honest view of the actual risk, not to sell you a team.

Our executive protection services start with a profile of the principal and a threat matrix. We map the daily routine, how often and where they travel, the family's exposure, the digital footprint and any known or likely hostile interest. From that we set the team size, shift pattern, vehicles and measures at home, using the smallest footprint that still does the job.

The footprint matters. Heavy, visible protection tells people there is someone worth targeting. We prefer officers who blend in: a suit at the board meeting, casual clothes at the weekend, with the ability to act held in reserve.

We work 24/7. Every shift handover is written down. Incidents go to a senior controller rather than resting with the officer on the ground. You receive a monthly summary and can reach operational leadership directly at any time.

Amsterdam. The Zuidas and the wider metropolitan area are where most executive protection in the Netherlands takes place. Visiting board members, fund managers, technology investors and wealthy private clients come for corporate events and sensitive meetings. They need protection that keeps pace with the city without getting in the way. We deploy vetted close protection officers in Amsterdam, around congresses at the RAI, for arrivals at Schiphol and at private residences across the region.

The Hague. Embassies, international courts and government bodies make The Hague a different place to work. Embassy staff, foreign dignitaries visiting Dutch counterparts, principals attending ICC hearings or NATO-related meetings, and executives in sensitive negotiations all need protection that respects diplomatic protocol. Our officers know how diplomatic security works in the Netherlands and coordinate with the DBB of the National Police where that applies.

Rotterdam. The port economy brings its own needs: visiting executives, commodity traders closing large deals, and principals with interests in port logistics or heavy industry. We provide close protection officers and security drivers in Rotterdam, Dordrecht and the Rijnmond area, including protective driving to and from the port and discreet cover for important meetings on the Kop van Zuid.

Eindhoven and Brainport. Executives and R&D directors in the ASML supply chain and on the High Tech Campus run a higher personal risk because of industrial espionage and corporate intelligence gathering. We provide close protection for Brainport principals, security for their international travel and home security assessments across North Brabant.
