Compliance Team

With the regulatory environment in South Africa rapidly evolving, legal compliance has become increasingly complex and challenging, with the threat of sanctions and reputational risk a constant threat to business continuity. 

To address the increasing scope and impact of legal compliance for businesses and institutions, our Compliance Team, has built up extensive experience to offer advice and support to clients across a range of sectors in respect of business and regulatory legal compliance.

The team can assist with individual policies and guidance, or comprehensively audit, assess and implement frameworks, policies and procedures to meet the legal and regulatory compliance aspects that apply to a client. This improves risk management, organizational performance and the public reputation of the client.

The team also provides training and packaged solutions to assist clients to implement and manage their own compliance frameworks, with packages including templates, policy formats, guides, reference materials and other applicable documentation.

Some of the main compliance areas which we assist clients with are: 

  • Trust & Company Regulatory Compliance
  • Privacy & Data Security
  • Information Technology & Cyber Security
  • Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Fraud & Financial Intelligence
  • Beneficial Ownership Reporting for Companies and Trusts
  • Risk Management
  • BBBEE Compliance
  • Regulatory Compliance

Effectively navigating the compliance landscape should be possible for clients. We aim to assist in making this possible.
