Due diligence & compliance: counterparties, partners, structure

For international companies, compliance is the gate. We organise counterparty screening, KYC packs, red‑flag analysis and deliver a decision memo your HQ (and often your bank) can actually use.

Process

How it works step by step

We move through milestones with clear ownership. Your team always knows what’s next.

Steps

  1. Scope: agree your standard (or use ours), counterparties list and depth.
  2. Data collection: request docs/questionnaires; collect verifications from sources.
  3. Screening: run checks; highlight red flags; build a risk score.
  4. Mitigation: propose controls: contracts, payment scenarios, EDD steps.

  • Define checklist and data questions

FAQ

Questions we get a lot

Is this a legal due diligence?

We run compliance‑oriented DD and manage the process. For legal opinions we involve licensed counsel.

Do you cover sanctions/AML checks?

We build a compliance process and can organise screening. Specific legal conclusions depend on your jurisdiction and counsel.

How many counterparties can you handle?

As many as needed — we scale through standards, trackers and packaging.

Can you do it in 48 hours?

We can do an initial screening and high‑level risk list. Full DD depends on how fast the counterparty provides documents.

Need to pass HQ compliance and avoid bank surprises?

Send a request — we’ll reply with 2–3 tracks, key risks and the next step. NDA is available.
