When his father fell ill, Kroll took a leave of absence to run the family business.
In 1972, he established Kroll, Inc., the prototype for a new breed of professional services firms dedicated to mitigating risk.
In 1972 he launched J. Kroll Associates, which eventually turned into Kroll, Inc. The business found corruption in companies which used printers with Kroll keeping a percentage of the savings.
A deal with Marvel Comics proved so profitable to both sides that Marvel switched to paying a retainer.
The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 generated new lines of business in auditing and compliance, so Kroll opened offices in Paris, Moscow, São Paulo, Tokyo, Singapore, and Manila.
The firm also provided political risk and executive protection services abroad.
Kroll forayed into banking and warehousing and built a reputation for pursuing financial crime across international borders by tracing and recovering assets.

In 2004, Kroll was sold to Marsh & McLennan Companies for $1.9 billion.
In June 2008, Kroll left his company and unsuccessfully tried to buy it back from MMC.
In 2009, Kroll founded two successor firms, Kroll Bond Rating Agency (KBRA) and K2 Intelligence.
K2 Intelligence—co-founded with Kroll’s son Jeremy Kroll, who serves as CEO—continues the family’s work in asset recovery, due diligence, litigation support, and a range of corporate investigations along with financial crime compliance advisory services.
In 2010 he launched Kroll Bond Rating Agency and K2 Global Consulting with his son Jeremy Kroll.
