We make sense of the world’s chaos so you can make hard decisions with confidence.
Stay a step ahead with valuable decision intelligence and strategic risk analysis
At Raksha, Aarathi Krishnan and her team provide the geopolitical intelligence, global risk anticipation, and strategic foresight you need to avoid being caught by surprise.
The world is full of uncertainty. It’s challenging to make big decisions and mitigate risk when you don’t understand or have access to all the pieces of the puzzle.
We take a unique, multidisciplinary approach to data science because we know it’s not possible to neutralize risk with just one data set. We collect information from multiple areas, fill in the gaps, and make sense of complex issues and intelligence. We identify emerging risks that might impact positioning and decision-making, giving you the information you need to be precise and proactive in mitigating or navigating crises.

Our Moral Compass
We are called Raksha, Sanskit for “protection,” because we believe that understanding global risks is an optimistic act of resistance. The most vulnerable bear the brunt of unanticipated risk. If we do not create and transform infrastructure and investments for existing risks and vulnerabilities, future compounding uncertainties will impede our ability to manage economic and human vulnerability, and even threaten to increase it.
Raksha is rooted in principles of liberation. We believe in the collective. We believe in justice. We believe in equity. We believe in plurality. To ensure lives of liberation, we are committed to exposing and mitigating the bad, so that the good can thrive.
“Aarathi has a rare perspective on the world, one based on her wealth of knowledge, experience and research. In the multiple intersections of her work, Aarathi grounds complexity in reality and in doing so, makes you look at things in a different way too. She is refreshingly honest, warm, and builds trust in difficult and complex processes”
