Cross-Border Advisory for the GCC and the US

AL Consulting Group (ACG) is a strategic advisory firm specializing in geopolitical risk, political economy, and socio-political dynamics across the GCC countries (including Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates) and the United States.

​

Headquartered in Cambridge-Boston with a presence in Washington DC, ACG operates at the nexus of academic insight, institutional access, and cross-border strategy. Our geographic positioning reflects both our analytical roots and our proximity to key centers of policy, research, and global engagement.

​

We support public and private sector clients with insight grounded in evidence rather than intuition. Our advisory work is powered by a blend of rigorous political analysis, economic modeling, network mapping, and real-world data, delivered with discretion and clarity.

​

At the core of ACG is a multidisciplinary network of trusted experts: academics, former officials, policy specialists, business leaders, NGO directors, and regional analysts. This network allows us to offer grounded, timely, and actionable advice shaped by both domain knowledge and lived experience.

​

From policy shifts in Washington to market signals in Riyadh, from institutional behavior in Doha to regulatory change in Abu Dhabi; we provide the intelligence that enables strategic decisions across borders.
