Dr. Vanessa Neumann

Founder & President

The Asymmetrica Group was founded by Dr. Vanessa Neumann, a political philosopher with a doctorate from Columbia University, who then turned to countering transnational illicit finance and criminal networks in defense of democracy and inclusive development for local communities. After forming the founding group of the OECD’s Task Force on Countering Illicit Trade, Dr. Neumann authored the 2017 book Blood Profits: How American Consumers Unwittingly Fund Terrorists, which was then published in Brazil in 2018 under the title Lucros de Sangue. Dr. Neumann has worked closely with security entities across several countries and advised many multinational conglomerates on their public affairs and countering the impact of corruption.

Also a former diplomat to the United Kingdom, Dr. Neumann currently sits on a number of advisory boards for technology companies and works with venture capital firms.

In 2023, she set up Asymmetrica Europa to bring innovative financial solutions to Latin American and Caribbean countries seeking to protect their environmental assets and bring alternative livelihoods to communities on the front line of climate change and adaptation.
