Commercial service / RISK & RESPONSIBILITY

Compliance & governance

As a business grows, its policies and compliance arrangements need to keep pace. Barnard helps identify legal gaps and develop documents, processes and governance arrangements suited to the way your business operates.

OPEN. UNFOLD. GET BACK TO BUSINESS.

Does this sound familiar?
The policies exist. You need to know whether they work.
  • You need to review POPIA or PAIA arrangements
  • Policies, supplier documents or website terms need updating
  • A compliance review or legal audit has become a priority

How we can help

Privacy and information
  • POPIA and PAIA policies and supporting documents
  • Information officer registration and PAIA manuals
  • Data processing agreements and data-breach response planning
Policies and legal reviews
  • Legal audits and gap analysis
  • Internal policies and standard operating procedures
  • Consumer, credit, competition and relevant sector compliance support
Governance in practice
  • Governance frameworks and director responsibilities
  • Compliance programmes and training
  • Alignment between internal policies and commercial agreements

Before we speak

Useful information to have ready for the conversation.

  1. The business activities and the issue you want reviewed
  2. Existing policies, manuals or previous assessment reports
  3. Any regulator correspondence or known compliance gaps
  4. The people responsible for implementing the changes

You do not need all of this to make an enquiry. Start with a brief outline; the team will arrange how to receive any sensitive documents.
