Compliance
The Organic Law 5/2010, of 22 June, introduced in Spain the criminal liability of legal persons for offenses committed by their legal proxies and directors on behalf and for the benefit of the entity, or by employees when the entity has breached its duties of control.
In the face of demand by businesses for advisory services on compliance as a tool for prevention, detection and impact mitigation of criminal or irregular situations, we have specialised in the implementation of prevention models.
These models are the tool required to avoid non-compliance and sanctions under criminal law. Likewise, these models have become an essential element for business development, and are required to make contracts or to obtain public funds or financing.
