Compliance
Stay compliant with RiskCap’s consulting and support services.
Compliance challenges can come from many different directions. Sometimes, they come from the outside – such as regulatory change, escalating threats of enforcement action, supervisory demands, or from institutional investors. Other times the challenges are more internal – problematic processes or documentation, lack of specialist expertise, or requests from key stakeholders.
Today Compliance Officers often choose to work with outside experts on portions – small or larger – of day-to-day activities. This flexible approach ensures compliance requirements are fulfilled in a way that optimizes time and resources for the organization. Whether an organization is looking to meet a specific ongoing compliance need, or wishes to collaborate more broadly across a range of compliance requirements, RiskCap can help.

Governance
If you need directors for hedge funds, fund managers, other financial institutions, SPVs or holding companies, we can support you. Independence has become an important and essential element in the operation of a company’s board of directors. For instance, directors who have no executive relationship are able to offer a truly independent and impartial service, thereby protecting the company’s interests and those of its investors.
Recent developments and upheavals in the financial services industry have highlighted the importance of appointing directors that are not only independent but who also have a detailed knowledge of the industry and how it works. Only by appointing such individuals can corporate governance really be effective. We understand the fiduciary obligations of the companies we serve and look to add significant value, providing investor comfort with minimal disruption to the company’s operations.
