Why choose us
Our implemented compliance programs have successfully navigated proceedings before the Office for the Protection of Competition (resulting in a significant reduction in fines in the millions) and in criminal proceedings against legal entities (leading to the dismissal of criminal charges against the entity).
We have experience in certifying compliance programs according to ISO 37001 (anti-bribery management system) and preparing for certification according to ISO 37301 (compliance management system). This allows us to seamlessly work with established regulatory frameworks within integrated management systems, providing practical insights for elevating compliance.
