We support clients in investigations and reporting processes, including advising on local implications for international companies under multi-jurisdictional investigations.
Our practice focuses on advising clients on relationships with third parties, such as commercial partners, distributors, facilitators, and suppliers, designing customized risk protection structures against potential breaches of anticorruption and anti-bribery laws.
We assist clients in drafting and implementing specific compliance, anticorruption, and ethics clauses for third parties. This includes monitoring compliance and designing compliance certificates to be periodically issued by third parties, as well as Know Your Client (KYC) procedures.
We provide advice to create and implement robust protections to mitigate risks of corporate criminal, civil, and administrative liability, which can lead to fines, disbarment, prohibition from public contracts, and imprisonment.
Our services focus on providing companies and management with governance tools to prevent compliance risks. We view ABC as a culture to be adopted by companies and offer solutions to help management, in-house counsels, and Compliance Officers achieve this goal.
