White Collar Investigations

The regulatory spotlight is shining brighter than ever on companies worldwide.

A range of corporates and institutions rely on KEMP’s global footprint and expertise to manage risk - in one jurisdiction or many. 

Exposure to civil or criminal liability is a time-consuming concern for companies of all stripes. Whether the risk arises from securities violations or fraud, money laundering or bribery, we believe proactivity is power. Kemp supports clients with corporate compliance and regulatory enforcement in all its phases – from risk assessments and compliance reviews to criminal liability and civil claims. We work closely with clients’ internal management, legal and audit teams to reduce disruption to business during investigations. 

Our aim is always prevention rather than cure, but we’re ready with gold-standard guidance through litigation, and enforcement actions by regulatory agencies worldwide.
