What CNQ Global Advisors does
CNQ Global Advisors is a geopolitical advisory firm. It advises on national security and defense, the global economy, technology, energy and commodities, and complex markets and governance, applying the same core methods to each, from geopolitical risk analysis and scenario planning to due diligence and crisis response.
Practice areas
For companies that build for, sell to, or invest in defense markets in the U.S. and allied countries.
Tariffs, sanctions, export controls and industrial policy, and how they change where companies buy, make and sell.
AI, drones and autonomous systems, and other critical technologies, in commercial and defense markets.
Oil, gas, power, critical minerals and other commodities that governments now treat as security issues.
Operating and investing in countries with contested elections, weak institutions, disputed territory or governments in transition.
Capabilities
Ongoing monitoring of the countries, partners, supply chains, and sanctions that shape a client's business, with early warning when something significant moves.
Clear, probability-weighted scenarios that show clients which signals to watch and what to do when events move.
The political, regulatory, and national security risks that legal and financial reviews miss, identified before capital is committed.
A clear-eyed view of conditions on the ground in different markets, what entry will require, and whether the opportunity is worth the risk.
