This helps companies safeguard themselves from potential criminal liability. Our services include designing and implementing corporate crime prevention and anti-money laundering plans; verifying, revising, and updating existing corporate crime prevention plans; establishing processes for efficient third-party risk management; creating protocols for handling situations involving entry and search by law enforcement agencies, regulators, and judicial bodies; implementing and managing internal reporting channels; conducting internal investigations within the framework of the law to uncover irregularities within the company; participating in due diligence processes for corporate transactions to detect potential legal issues; providing ongoing advice on regulatory compliance; and developing training programs on policy and procedure for crime prevention.

Due diligence processes

In the due diligence processes or procedures carried out by the buyer or investor of a company, we advise said buyer or investor so that they can properly assess potential criminal incidents that may arise throughout the process in any of the different business areas.

Money laundering prevention plans

We advise companies, if they are legally obligated entities, on the design and implementation of anti-money laundering prevention plans. Alternatively, we create and assist in executing such anti-money laundering prevention plans so that, if necessary, the company can safeguard itself from potential administrative or criminal liability.

Dawn raid protocols
