Company Compliance Policies

Starting a business is not just about having an idea and ‘giving it a go’. It’s also about having the correct strategy, understanding obligations and ensuring the infrastructure is robust and sustainable. A business should ensure that its foundations are firm enough to withstand the diversity of economic demands.

A Compliance and Governance framework is key to ensuring that the business operates within a controlled and managed environment. From creating a Privacy Policy, to implementing an effective oversight of risk management or an integrated structure for internal controls; Corporate Compliance and Governance can set the ethical blueprint of a Business.

When constructing your Compliance and Governance framework, it is important to consider such things as the Company’s:

  • Privacy Policy
  • Risk Management Process
  • Business Continuity Process
  • Financial Reporting (Internal and External)
  • Board of Directors and Director Responsibilities
  • Shareholder and Stakeholder Communication
  • Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorist Financing Policy

Remember, your Compliance and Governance frameworks are about your business! They should reflect the culture, ethos, and style of what your business is about; the above is just a sample of what Business owners should consider.
