Pragmatic design
If you need tailormade policies and procedures that make sense for employees.

Compliance Management Systems
The main elements of a Compliance Management System include Risk assessment, Policy design, meaningful Training and continous Monitoring.
Risk Assessment
Starting point of every good compliance system should be a clear methodology for compliance risk assessment.
Policy design
Writing a good policy is an art. It is about finding the balance between clarity and completeness.
Training
The most important thing for implementing your compliance program is that the relevant employees receive the tailored training that they need. We can support you in the design and execution of interactive and fun compliance training.
Monitoring
The compliance function needs to have oversight on the controls for the identified compliance risks. Reviewing transactions, third-party relationships and customers on a regular basis should be done in an objective automated manner. But it will always need expertise and experience to efficiently judge the found issues.
Risk Assessment
The Start
Do you know what your real risks are? Where could the organization be threatened by compliance breaches? A compliance risk assessment is needed to allocate adequate resources to areas within the organization where it is most needed. A good risk assessment methodology can save time, money and prevent issues from staying of the radar.
Risk Identification
Setting up a risk inventory that covers the main business units, countries and processes.
Risk Analysis
Applying expert knowledge on the identified risks to give a weighted perspective.
Risk Monitoring

KYC
For a ‘Know-Your-Customer’ program, a simple Trade Sanction check is not enough anymore. A KYC-program should be set up in an automated, tailormade way so that it doesn’t hurt the primary business but supports the business.
