Madeleine Research’s strength lies in its regional judgement, source access, and investigative discipline.
Based in São Paulo, the firm draws on two decades of experience providing research and insight on Brazil and South America. Our team comes from a journalistic background, having reported on the region for leading international publications including The Wall Street Journal and the Financial Times.
This experience underpins our interviewing skills, source development capability, regional knowledge, and ability to operate discreetly in sensitive environments.
Our team is based in-country, ensuring greater sensitivity to local issues, and is supported by trusted collaborators and specialist researchers where additional expertise or capacity is required.
All work is reviewed carefully before delivery, with findings assessed for accuracy, reliability, relevance, and practical value.
Discretion is central to everything we do. We do not use pretexts or false identities, and we take care to protect client confidentiality, manage conflicts of interest, and conduct enquiries in a proportionate and ethical manner.
