Compliance

01. About

We help companies detect, prevent and protect their executives and their organization from liabilities due to non-compliance. Like many countries, China has set up a large amount of regulations increasing the personal liability of executives to ensure the respect of corporate obligations.

We also help clients set up and manage whistleblowing systems, organize internal processes, provide training and workshops to fight against corruption. We advise our clients on cybersecurity and data compliance obligations and provide assistance during compliance investigation. The China Cybersecurity Law and GDPR are putting clients on a collision course. The ever-increasing risk of cyber-attacks triggers the need for constant monitoring from our clients and increases their workload and costs. Our specialists can advise on the full spectrum of advisory & compliance scenarios- including anti-bribery and corruption compliance, as well as data security and mapping. We can also assist you to watch regulatory changes and develop cyber-attack response plans. Our China practice provides a deep overview of the latest compliance trends in China, including the recent roll-out of the Corporate Social Credit Score (CSCS) to all PRC players. Leaf also provides internal audits for Corporate Social Credit monitoring and remediation strategies.
