Managing risk. Setting standards. Protecting institutions. We advise organisations on the frameworks, obligations and standards that determine how they govern, operate and are accountable.
From drafting board governance frameworks to advising on AML/CFT obligations and ESG disclosure, we provide practical, expert guidance on the full spectrum of governance, compliance and policy matters.
We advise clients on compliance with applicable regulatory regimes — including sector-specific requirements, licensing conditions, reporting obligations and engagement with regulatory authorities. We translate complex regulatory frameworks into actionable compliance programmes.
We advise financial institutions, designated non-financial businesses and professionals on anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing obligations — including policy development, customer due diligence frameworks, suspicious transaction reporting and NFIU engagement.
We help organisations integrate environmental, social and governance principles into their governance structures, operations and reporting — aligning with international ESG frameworks, investor expectations and emerging regulatory requirements in Nigeria.
We conduct governance and compliance audits — reviewing board structures, statutory records, regulatory filings, contractual obligations and internal policies to identify gaps and recommend remediation. Our audits give management and boards a clear picture of actual risk exposure.
We advise public institutions and private sector participants in public procurement processes on compliance with the Public Procurement Act, due process requirements, bid documentation and procurement disputes — helping clients navigate one of Nigeria's most scrutinised regulatory areas.
We advise boards, board committees and individual directors on fiduciary obligations, conflicts of interest, board committee structures and governance best practice. We also develop board charters, governance codes and director induction frameworks.
We advise organisations on compliance with the Nigeria Data Protection Act (NDPA) and its implementing framework — including data protection impact assessments, privacy policies, data processing agreements and engagement with the Nigeria Data Protection Commission (NDPC).
We assist clients in engaging with regulatory bodies and policymakers — including preparing submissions on proposed regulations, representing clients in regulatory consultations and advising on how emerging policy developments will affect operations and commercial strategies.
