The Centre for Strategic Advantage (CSA) is a UK-based nonprofit that helps free societies understand, anticipate and respond to emerging threats. It brings together leaders from government, business and civil society to strengthen the resilience democracies need to thrive in an increasingly competitive world. CSA’s research examines how hostile states use tools such as influence over global supply chains to challenge the rules-based international system and exert political pressure beyond their borders. Its work helps decision-makers identify opportunities, assess risks, reduce vulnerabilities and develop practical responses.

CSA’s approach focuses on three areas: protecting societies by exposing supply-chain vulnerabilities and supporting measures that build institutional resilience; competing by identifying opportunities to create strategic leverage; and disrupting adversarial systems by finding weaknesses that can be used to limit their harm. The organisation publishes analysis, expert perspectives and evidence-based recommendations on issues shaping the strategic landscape. Its first published research examines Russia’s influence over uranium supplies.
