We support firms in hiring senior leaders and subject-matter experts who understand the pace, expectations, and culture of modern business.

Independence compliance services
This service is provided by our partner company, Catey GmbH, which is authorised by the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA).
When a culture of compliance is essential to your business, consulting, audit firms, bankers, and listed companies with officers considered insiders have one thing in common: they implement policies and restrictions on how their executives and staff can benefit economically from financial investments.
The difficulty is that no organisation, regardless of its compliance efforts and size, can eliminate the risk of insider trading. We must understand that they are very real, and come with the potential for significant regulatory consequences – none of them good.
