Our Services

At Cypher Strategies, we offer bespoke geopolitical advisory services designed to help you turn global uncertainty into opportunity. Our expertise combines decades of hands-on intelligence work with high-level strategic oversight, providing your leadership team with an integrated approach to risk management.

How We Work

London Bridge at sunset, symbolizing global connections and strategic access, reflecting Cypher Strategies' approach to exclusive client partnerships, tailored advisory services, and leveraging an extensive network of international experts.

  • We selectively partner with forward-thinking leaders who prioritize high-impact, transformative advisory.

    This ensures that every client receives the full depth of our expertise and commitment.

  • Every partnership begins with an in-depth consultation and a strategic audit to understand your business’s pain points, objectives, and existing risk management framework.

    For retainer clients, this is followed by proactive advisory and ongoing touchpoints. For project clients, the engagement concludes with precise, actionable recommendations.

  • Once the initial audit is complete, we bring in specialists as needed to support our clients’ specific requirements.

    We have cultivated a remarkable global network of diverse, best-in-class experts to augment any client engagement.

  • Each engagement is tailored, and so is our pricing — aligned precisely with the complexity of your strategic needs.

  • Erika is a crystal ball, predicting geopolitical risks years in advance, and cutting through jargon with pragmatic, actionable advice that balances risk and opportunity.
