Compliance
Create structure – comply across disciplines
A complexity of regulations is making it increasingly difficult for companies to identify and comply with legal requirements. As a result, not only those holding executive or supervisory functions such as officers or directors, but also members of supervisory bodies such as advisory boards are exposed to liability risks. Corporate compliance, therefore, is a top priority, and effective compliance management is the ultimate means of protection.
Prevent exposures
Knowing what legal requirements apply to a business and how to create transparency are crucial to corporate success. Adequate compliance structures help to avoid liability exposures. In a nutshell: Exposure prevention is critical in the corporate governance and sustainability process.
