Understanding the Impact of Global Security Trends on Business Operations with Aimen Dean

In our first live recording of the REWIRE podcast, we sit down with Aimen Dean, a distinguished security and counter-terrorism advisor and former MI6 spy. Aimen played a pivotal role in the global campaign against terrorism for the British Secret Intelligence Service, gathering critical intelligence on al-Qaeda and other extremist groups. Post-MI6, he has consulted for HSBC and numerous other major private and public entities, offering expert guidance on international security and counter-terrorism.

Aimen's profound insights provide a deep understanding of geopolitical risks and their implications for international business. In this compelling conversation, we delve into the unique security challenges businesses face in the Middle East and how to navigate them. We explore the evolving landscape of terrorism, anti-money laundering, and counter-terrorism finance, as well as the broader geopolitical dynamics of the Middle East, including significant reforms in Saudi Arabia over the past decade.

Drawing from his extensive experience in intelligence and security, Aimen offers a unique vantage point for navigating complex regulatory environments, developing robust risk management frameworks, and understanding the impact of global security trends on business operations. He emphasises the importance of logical, dispassionate conflict resolution and its far-reaching implications for global security and business resilience.
