Governance, Legislation, Contracts
Audits are of major importance to establish the compliance of an organisation with the applicable requirements.
ECB Nederland Legal Audits.
ECB cooperates with Waveland Advocatenkantoor for all legal support to her clients.
ECB Legal audits have been set up professionally with the aim on getting in-depth and detailed grip on the status of an organisation with respect to laws and legislation.
The appropriate legislation can be very diverse, and differing by sector. ECB Nederlands tested legal auditing system is used per type of legislation.
Customs legislation, production legislation, legislation in the financial sector, in the maritime sector, in the care sector, in the civil construction sector, etc.
Every sector is confronted with legislation which applies to everyone, and with specific legislation for a sector. The ECB Nederland Legal audit always concerns the system of control for your organisation with which management gets the tools for a specific action.
For example the law of Identification services (WID), the law on Financial Services (WFD), Wet Melding Ongebruikelijke transacties, de Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (MiFID, the new European directive which must be converted to local legislation in every Member State and that becomes effective on 1 November 2007 in the Netherlands), the telecommunication law, author law, Law supervision impact movement (Wte), Law supervision movement (Wte), Law supervision investment institutions (Wtb), Faillisementswet and law debt cleansing natural persons, Law Giraal Effectgenverkeer, Sarbanes Oxley, Basel II, privacy legislation, de Code Tabaksblat etc. Internal rules, and contract provisions can also be a reason to implement ECB Legal audits.
Legal Auditing system
The main issue for ECB Nederland is setting up and implement the correct Legal auditing system to ensure your organisation will apply the procedures that will lead to a compliant organisation. ECB Nederland originates from the need to systematically apply Legal auditing on the appropriate legislation. Allow ECB Nederland to precede its Legal auditing experience to work for you.
Blanks and Risks
Good audits will cover all relevant legislation that is applicable to the audited part of the organisation. The audits result in reports that clearly state the blanks and risks in the audited organisation. The reports will be discussed with the management. Management can fill in the blanks and implement remedies according to the findings in the reports. In this way audits and reports assist management and the organisation to achieve a more efficient and compliant organisation.
