corporate compliance

Corporate Compliance is an essential part of proper corporate management as well as of modern risk management and stands for monitoring of laws, guidelines and internal codes of behaviour. Without an appropriate compliance-system the company faces legal and economic risks; management bodies and supervisory bodies face the risk of personal liability in case of damage. Establishing a compliance-system which is up-to-date not only contributes to avoidance of unnecessary costs and damage to one’s image, but also to personal risk avoidance of businessmen respectively business bodies.

The participants will get to know compliance-processes by means of the anti-corruption-compliance, which refers to support and control of business processes in companies, aiming at risk avoidance, as well as increase of efficiency and effectiveness in one’s company. Furthermore the risks of personal liability of businessmen and management bodies will be shown and by which tried and tested measures these risks can be avoided in the day-to-day business.
