Foglamp is a customizable in-country research service helping investors and professionals better understand opportunities in overseas markets. Foglamp engagements provide clients with the consolidated insights of dozens of local managers and market participants rather than one or two “expert” opinions.
Our approach focuses on:
- Leveraging more than 1,300 researchers and journalists in more than 120 countries to answer client questions.
- Providing clients with a virtual network of on-demand contributors around the world to supplement their own in-house research teams and complementary commercial research services.
- Tapping on-the-ground locals (researchers, academics, journalists, and attorneys) who speak the local language, have the local contacts, and are not the typical ex-patriot.
Delivering concise written analysis to clients augmented by phone and instant message conversations to fully flesh out complex opportunities and risks.
Engaging multiple team members for each client engagement to guarantee quick turnaround, high quality, and a diversity of informed views.

Foglamp attempts to fulfills Global Integrity's mission by stimulating private sector demand for reform through market-based mechanisms that respond to corruption and transparency risks in global markets. By leveraging our network of more than 1,300 in-country contributors, Foglamp is able to generate real-time custom research for the overseas investment community to directly address deal-specific questions. In lay terms, Foglamp generates the information that will go to an investment committee meeting, answering concerns about regulatory and reputational risk while helping to unearth hidden investment opportunities in markets where public perception of corruption may lag behind actual reform.
Marketed and branded separately, Foglamp also serves as a source of earned revenue for Global Integrity, providing a path towards sustainability for the organization as a whole. For more information about Foglamp, including case studies of previous projects, please visit the Foglamp website.
