Kaplan International is a global leader in education with operations spanning the Americas, Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and Australasia. Operating in highly regulated and dynamic environments, Kaplan must navigate rapidly evolving global compliance landscapes, ensuring every new relationship meets international standards.

To support its needs, Kaplan relies on Nexis Diligence by LexisNexis®, comprehensive risk management tool for fast, effective due diligence. The platform is especially useful for investigating companies quickly from a single interface, providing a complete picture across geographies and data sources.

How Kaplan Uses Nexis Diligence

Mihaela Breaban-Cook, Compliance Manager – Financial Crime at Kaplan International, uses Nexis Diligence as a key part of her compliance toolkit.

With global responsibilities and increasing complexity driven by shifting international regulations, political instability, and civil unrest, Nexis Diligence plays a crucial role in her daily work. The platform is used to investigate companies, identify executive committees, verify ownership, and gather contextual details, particularly useful when assessing potential risk factors.

“I like Nexis Diligence because it gives me executive committee information... It gives me more than I would get from just Googling.”

Mihaela often uses Nexis Diligence to assess companies operating in challenging environments, such as Middle East, where regulatory information is harder to find. Before adopting Nexis Diligence, Kaplan International spent valuable hours piecing together intelligence from scattered sources. Today, those hours are reclaimed by Nexis Diligence's intuitive research capabilities. The platform simplifies the process and reduces reliance on web searches, which often yield outdated or incomplete information.

““...It makes my job easier… All the critical information in one place, and it saves me time!”

Value and efficiency for a global organisation

Kaplan International's global footprint demands a due diligence solution that meets a wide range of international compliance standards. From the U.S. to the EU, Middle East to Asia-Pacific, Mihaela must ensure compliance with multiple, complex legal frameworks.

Nexis Diligence supports this by consolidating hard-to-access information, providing detailed company investigations, and surfacing financial data and executive structures. Mihaela notes that recent features like visual diagrams and ownership mapping have become particularly helpful to understand corporate relationships quickly.

“For me, it is a return on investment. It helps me do my job and saves time.”

Another standout feature for Kaplan is how Nexis Diligence displays publication dates clearly publication dates clearly. This helps Mihaela assess whether the information is still current, particularly important when evaluating concerns around corruption, fraud, or outdated ownership data

For Kaplan International, Nexis Diligence offers a strong return on investment by strengthening the organisation's ability to navigate complex regulatory requirements with clarity and confidence.

By helping save time and improve accuracy, Nexis Diligence has become a valuable part of Kaplan International's compliance workflow. For other global organisations facing similar challenges, Kaplan International's experience demonstrates that having the right tools can make all the difference.
