Since Federal Law 12.846 came into force in 2014, Civil Society Organizations and national and foreign companies operating in Brazil have had to adopt effective systems for preventing corruption and any other form of acts against the public administration.
The new legal requirement, together with new rules on disclosure of information on public funding and accountability systems for government agencies and prosecutors, special attention is required from companies and CSOs for the set of acts and principles that is commonly known as Corporate Compliance.
In addition to these mandatory rules, current times demand policies in certain areas, such as unfair treatment and harassment in the workplace, protection of donor data, money laundering, transparency and good governance.
In this context, and with extensive experience in the field, our Governance and Corporate Compliance team is prepared to help Civil Society Organizations and companies to deal with this challenging moment, by providing added value and specialized consultancy in the design and implementation of reliable and effective Governance and Corporate Compliance systems.
