Built up and implemented an anti-corruption compliance system

Pepeliaev Group’s lawyers handled a project aimed at building up and implementing a modern anti-corruption compliance system within the client’s company. At the first stage, our experts carried out a complex compliance audit which included the following tasks: identifying and assessing corruption risks, drawing up a list of positions related to such risks, devising a complex of measures to eliminate and mitigate the risks, analysing the anti-corruption and corporate procedures which were already being used by the company, developing a methodology for monitoring how efficiently the management of corruption risks was functioning, etc. At the second stage, our experts modernised the internal regulations system.

The compliance audit of the company was performed not in one area, but in a comprehensive manner, including research and mitigation of corporate, tax, intellectual property, anti-corruption and criminal law risks. This approach allowed us to identify related and cross-sector risks and to devise comprehensive recommendations on how to overcome and mitigate them.

At the end of the project, our lawyers conducted a training workshop for the company’s employees regarding compliance, and prepared an educational presentation and an information booklet.
