Lawyer Compliance Packages, KYC & GAP Analyses Cologne

Compliance-focused legal advice for your business activities - personal, cross-border, cost-efficient.

DISTINGUISH YOURSELF - MAKE COMPLIANCE YOUR COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE

Do you often see compliance as a regulatory evil rather than as a competitive advantage and protective shield for your company? Do you make business decisions every day that should be legally protected in order to minimize risk? Are you well versed in KYC and business partner checks as a touchstone for initiating new business relationships.

Based on numerous cases from my practice as a corporate lawyer, I would state as a rule of thumb: only with a company that is organically healthy through compliance structures can you set the course for sustainable economic success.

Every consultation on compliance necessarily begins with a GAP analysis, i.e. determining the delta between the target and the actual state. The result of the GAP analysis will reflect the anatomy of your company and its status quo. This means the functionality of the company-critical bodies and processes in your organization. Who and what works well? What liability and reputation risks do you need to get under control?

The key to this lies in an effective compliance strategy. With compliance packages. This not only provides you with comprehensive protection against legal and financial risks, but also strengthens your company image and market position - sustainably.

Package solution 1: Corporate Compliance Shield (CCS)

The Corporate Compliance Shield is a basic package, specially designed for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with an international focus. This package will organize your company in terms of personnel and functionality and give it a sustainable compliance structure with a modern appearance. The CCS includes the reciprocal combination of the management's authority to issue guidelines on the one hand and the departmental authority of department heads and special representatives on the other hand with reporting and documentation obligations. You will benefit from this as follows:

  • Reduction of the personal liability of the management 
  • Protection against fines and sanctions imposed by the company
  • Avoiding image and reputation damage
  • Optimization of communication processes and clear assignments within your organizational chart
  • Concentration of the workforce on core competencies for greater employee satisfaction (keyword: job description in the employment contract)
  • Compliance as a public-facing indicator for a model company (Trust)

What I do for you:

  • GAP analyses
  • Reform proposals agreed with you
  • Establishment of a Compliance Committee (CCS) with external support from Geißler-Legal (optional)
  • Implementation of compliance structures in your company
  • In-house training, templates and whitepapers for your employees
  • Creation of a legal register with AI-based deadline information
  • Ongoing monitoring and further support if and as required

Package Solution 2: Directors Compliance Shield (DCS)

The Directors Compliance Shield is tailored to managing directors and authorized representatives. The DCS package is aimed specifically at managers and offers the following benefits:

  • D&O topics coordinated with your D&O insurance
  • Protection against piercing the corporate veil in the event of corporate sanctions and non-compliance
  • Avoiding personal and corporate reputational damage
  • Measures to prevent organizational negligence (exculpation scenarios)
  • Compliance as a public-facing indicator of serious and modern management

What I do for you:

  • GAP analyses
  • reform proposals coordinated hand-in-hand
  • Introduction and design of a compliance committee (DCS) with external support by Geißler-Legal (optional)
  • Individual adaptation to the size, industry and internationality of your company
  • In-house training for all directors and officers
  • Monthly hourly quota for consultation by a lawyer
  • Adapting compliance measures to your specific business needs
  • Regular advice and support from experts

Package solution 3: Compliance Management System (CMS) - ISO certified according to ISO 37900

For established companies, I also offer the major solution of implementing a CMS certified according to ISO 37900. In cooperation with my network, you will receive:

  • Certified compliance processes according to international standards
  • Creation and implementation of a comprehensive compliance management system
  • ISO 37900 certification to demonstrate the highest compliance standards to your customers and partners
