Corporate compliance is a preventive activity concerned with preventing the risk that company activity fails to comply with procedures, regulations, legal provisions and codes of conduct, suggesting the fairest and most effective solutions wherever misalignments are found.
The aim is to avoid penalties that could damage the company’s brand reputation with customers, partners and stakeholders.

Internal Audit
We carry out periodic audits on specific processes (procurement, anti-money laundering, quality, information security) with a written report, non-conformities graded by severity, an agreed action plan and follow-up along the improvement pathway.
