Compliance. In one place.

We put special emphasis on spreading compliance awareness in Hungary. 

In order to achieve this goal it is upmost important to make the Hungarian and international news, professional materials, job offers, services, available trainings, professional workshops, events, and courses in each area of ​​corporate lines of defense available to the domestic professional audience as widely as possible.

The company’s lines of defense are a coherent system of tools, methods and procedures that ensure the fulfillment of the organization’s mission, reliable and efficient operation. 

The three main lines of defense are: 

    • First Line of Defence: controls built into the internal operating processes; 
    • Second Line of Defence: control functions (e.g. compliance, risk control); and 
    • Third Line of Defence: independent internal audit. 

Details:
