How are you placed?
Do you operate in a regulated sector and/or face multiple regulators?
Do you know the extent of legal compliance across your operations? How do international laws impact your operations?
Do you deal with large and complex contracts? Is your legal and compliance framework cost-effective?
Do you have a compliance mechanism that can stand regulatory scrutiny? Are there adequate mechanisms to manage key legal risks (IPR, litigation, data privacy, etc.)?
The sudden increase in the regulatory enforcement in India has catapulted compliance risk on top of the board, management and audit committee agenda. Additionally, the regulatory regime in India continues to be complex requiring regular interactions with multiple regulators.
Threats associated with non compliance
•
Cancellation of licence to operate
•
Loss of reputation
• Imprisonment of directors and officials of the company
• Imposition of penalties and fines
