With the Netherlands, Thailand, and India progressing rapidly, and a new location on the horizon, the future looks promising for Lares Risk Management International (LRM).

Across the regions, Saurabh Srivastava continues to drive success in South Asia and India, with new opportunities emerging and further growth and hiring plans already underway. Natchaya Paseerod continues to manage operations across Southeast Asia with excellence, ensuring smooth coordination and trusted delivery across multiple markets.

The third quarter of 2025 marked another phase of steady growth and strong delivery across APAC and EMEA.

We were pleased to welcome Kieran Howells to the team as Head of Executive Protection and Family Office Services, and Robin Verhoek as Client Embedded Project Leader in Operational Technology and Cyber Security, further enhancing our expertise and strengthening our operational depth across regions and globally.

This quarter, our teams successfully delivered secure transportation and close protection operations in Bangkok, Singapore, and India, and supported corporate relocation assessments for organizations entering the Southeast Asia market. We also continued the Global Operational Technology (OT) Security Program for a multinational dairy client, advanced the development of our Family Office Security Framework, began the process of embedding and mentoring a new Close Protection Officer, and continued vetting trusted partners to maintain our standards of quality and compliance.

We also launched a Training and Development section, collaborating on an OSINT Training in Bangkok, Thailand, and participating as an observing guest in a HEAT Training, both key steps in preparing for next year’s training schedule and capability expansion.

“Our expansion across APAC and EMEA is the result of precision, consistency, and trust, foundations that continue to define how we deliver.” – Ben Suurd CPP, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) & Partner

“This quarter has been about structure and scalability, building frameworks, empowering people, and setting the stage for long-term success.” – Andreas Karki CBCI, CRMP, CATS, Chief Operating Officer (COO) & Partner
