Compliance and Due Diligence
Regulatory compliance and stakeholders’ integrity
The SwisSpirit offers a complete range of due diligence services, ranging from simple audits to the most complex investigations. Given corporate obligations to take measures against corruption and to ensure their effectiveness under pain of sanctions, the SwisSpiritp’s experts and consultants audit business practices and, if necessary, strengthen the inhouse procedures in force.
The SwisSpirit Group’s analysts map the political and business networks of the targets examined and check the integrity of natural and legal persons in relation to its customers.
Worldwide Coverage
The services offered by the SwisSpirit are carried out by a dedicated team, able to urgently address the most complex situations. The base team, located in Geneva, works directly with the Group’s Country-Risk analysts and can rely on offices located in the North Africa/Middle East zone and in Sub-Saharan Africa.
In certain countries, the SwisSpirit can also call upon local networks, which have been in existence for more than twenty years and are regularly audited.
Hence, the SwisSpirit is able to carry out assignments anywhere in the world, including in hazardous countries or those characterised by a high opacity in their business circles.
