Office consultation on compliance issues

What are Regulatory Compliance & Advisory Services?

Regulatory Compliance & Advisory Services are consulting services to help organizations understand, develop, and manage their compliance obligations. These services include a variety of activities including:

Identifying the applicable laws, regulations, and industry standards specific to a business or industry.
Developing internal policies and procedures to meet regulatory obligations.
Conducting risk assessments and compliance audits.
Helping to educate employees and management about compliance obligations and best-practices.
Advising on regulatory changes and how they will impact the business.
Communicating with regulatory bodies.

Developing consistent, fact-based communication across channels.
Creating media coverage that supports credibility and visibility.
Developing monitoring and reporting mechanisms to ensure compliance over time.

The ultimate goal of these services is to reduce compliance risk, avoid compliance violations, and allow the business to function within the law while pursuing its strategic objectives.

Why is Compliance Relevant?

Government oversight, growing requirements for disclosures, and the globalisation of business have all amplified a need for regulatory compliance. Workplaces like finance, healthcare, pharmaceuticals, energy, telecommunications, and manufacturing all operate in a converged and regulated environment, leaving these workplaces acutely vulnerable to compliance issues of all types.

A compliance issue could lead to:

1

Financial penalties. Fines for a compliance issue could be in the millions of dollars if not tens of millions of dollars.
2

Legal penalties. A compliance issue could lead to lawsuits, criminal charges, and/or loss of licenses to operate.
3

Thousands of dollars in lost reputation. Much like financial penalties, compliance failures can attract negative publicity that hurts credibility and damages customer relationships.
4

Disruption of business. Depending on the nature of the compliance issue, compliance actions could render operational activities non-operational when a compliance investigation begins and/or ongoing compliance enforcement actions.

Based on the above assessments, compliance management is relevant because it protects workplaces from penalties; however there are also reputational but also an ability to promote respectable regulation within the workplace. In this way it can also lead to competitive advantage.

Key Elements of Regulatory Compliance & Advisory Service

1. Regulatory Risk Assessment

Understanding where an organization stands regarding regulatory obligations is the first step in compliance management. A compliance advisor conducts a risk assessment to:

Identify applicable statutes and regulation;
Review existing policy and controls;
Identify exposures and gaps; and,
Prioritize compliance risks based on expectations for business impact.

This diagnostic provides a framework for focused compliance strategy.

2. Policy Development and Implementation

Following-up on the risk assessment, advisory services help organizations to develop bespoke compliance policies and procedures in alignment with legal obligations and best practices. This can include:

Constitution a code of conduct, an anti-corruption policy, data privacy policy frameworks, and market sector-specific compliance manuals;
Defining roles and responsibilities; and,
Embedding compliance into everyday business operations.

3. Training and Awareness

Regulations are complex and usually evolving. Advisory services offer tailored training programs designed to educate employees, management, and Board members about their compliance obligations. Good training can raise awareness to help organizations develop a compliance culture, and/or mitigate risks of inadvertent non-compliance.

4. Review and Monitoring

Continuous monitoring is essential for ensuring that policies are being followed properly, and that controls are functioning well. Compliance advisory services employ teams who design and implement the audit programs that:

Review transactions, operations and documentation
Test controls and processes
Identify potential violations early on
Suggest corrective action

5. Regulatory Change Management

Regulations change frequently and at a rapid pace. Compliance advisory services track, assess and communicate changes in laws and regulations, and update compliance frameworks in response. These proactive activities help organizations stay ahead of regulatory compliance risks.

6. Liaison Role with Regulators

Advisory services can sit as a liaison between organizations and regulatory authorities. Compliance professionals can help organize regulatory filings and participate in regulatory questions, inspections and discussions with regulatory representatives in a professional manner with strategic reasoning to help with decisions around regulatory requirements.
