Consello, a global advisory and investing platform, has acquired Morpheus Risk, a UK-based risk and threat assessment firm that provides insight and operational support to multinational companies. The deal expands Consello’s ability to help executives address operational, reputational, and security challenges as geopolitical volatility and corporate risk exposures rise.
Consello said Morpheus brings an operator-led team with backgrounds in law enforcement, intelligence, and national security. The firm plans to integrate Morpheus into a newly formed Consello Risk practice that will combine strategic advisory work with on-the-ground intelligence capabilities and practical risk mitigation programs, complementing Consello’s existing services across corporate advisory, M&A, management consulting, talent, and sports and entertainment.
Morpheus will operate within the new risk platform as Consello builds out what it described as a broader global offering to support leadership teams navigating complex, fast-evolving threats. Consello said its footprint includes offices in New York, Miami, Atlanta, Dublin, Belfast, London, Abu Dhabi, and Riyadh, while its investing arm, Consello Capital, targets mid-market companies for growth-oriented investment and operational support.
