Compliance Advisory
At Aria Grace Law CIC, we have a team of compliance specialists with an astute understanding of legal and regulatory requirements across multiple jurisdictions. While we are based in London, our model allows us to help clients across the globe.
What Does Your Organisation Need to Know?​
​
We advise all types of businesses. Whether you're a start-up or an established large organisation, it is critical that you put in place measures to comply with anti-money laundering, anti-bribery and corruption, and anti-slavery and human trafficking legal requirements.
​
Failure to adhere to these requirements can result in regulatory enforcement actions, including civil and/or criminal penalties for your organisation, personal liability for key individuals, and the potential revocation of your operating license. You could also experience the loss of management time in dealing with violations, damage to employee morale, diminished shareholders' trust and confidence, and significant harm to your public image. All of these factors impact your organisation's value.
​
At Aria Grace Law CIC, we want to ensure that these issues do not affect your business. We have a team of knowledgeable lawyers (who also serve as experienced compliance officers) that can provide advice on how to be cost-efficient and effective in meeting your compliance obligations, ultimately turning them into a selling point for your organisation.
​
