WELCOME

Compliance means the correct behaviour of a company and all its employees in legal and also ethical respects. Meanwhile compliance is more than just a buzzword; it is the serious responsibility of managers and executives, including liability risks, even affecting their personal assets. Well trained employees within the company and supervising external consultants are standard in many companies, but this is not enough. RETEGO has got the instruments to identify and minimise internal and external compliance-risks.

Compliance structure: Based on a comprehensive variance-analysis we identify and define the current need for action, and support you in optimising your compliance structures. We draft compliance manuals as well as accompanying measures such as employee-training and implementation and evaluation support.

Business Partner Screening: We discreetly check potential and current business partners, especially in international business, regarding integrity, credibility, business practices, reliability, reputation, quality of network and fulfilment of contracts.

Pre-Employment-Screening: You should pay attention to the integrity of your employees as early on as during the selection process. RETEGO offers a discreet check of candidates, especially of those for managerial positions and for posts with extraordinary responsibility, regarding security relevant criteria. In this way we support you to make the right decisions for employments and to avoid unpleasant surprises.

Risk-Assessment: Our analysis helps you to evaluate risks more comprehensively, to make connections more transparent and to eliminate uncertainties or security-gaps. The risk-assessment reinforces your confidence in handling unexpected issues.

Fighting Corruption: Whistle blowing systems are an essential instrument for the identification and prevention of corruption. We implement this central compliance-management component and offer employees and externals an excellent platform to voice suspicion and to have critical issues verified appropriately.

Business Mediation: Conflicts occur in professional teamwork between colleagues, on managerial level, between executives and employees, or between departments, clients and customers. The communication process between the parties engaged in the economic process in these situations is characterised by either no longer being constructive, and/or being emotionally charged, or it has even completely broken down. RETEGO provides space for communication, reaches consent and offers innovative alternative solutions.

Investigations und Forensic Accounting: In cases of white-collar-crime the management has to do everything possible to completely clarify the issue, without involving authorities, which usually causes unnecessary public attention. The experts of RETEGO verify issues professionally and efficiently. They use up to date criminalistic and forensic methods in accordance with the standards of international police authorities. Forensic interview-techniques are applied, as well as classic methods of gathering and securing evidence and using special analysis-software.

Business Intelligence: Increasingly globalised markets necessarily demand knowledge about competitors, the market situation, security-relevant factors in situ or about possible risks caused by locally or regionally active criminal individuals or groups. Frequently, this is crucial for the economic survival of companies and for the personal security of the company’s local representatives. RETEGO offers not only a comprehensive criminalistic analysis of the situation but also decision guidance and practical training.

Asset-Tracing: Once a case of white-collar-crime is revealed, the tracing of payment flow and the securing and repatriation of illegally gained assets appear to be complex and time-consuming. International finance-networks, border crossing asset-linkage as well as different legal conditions in the countries involved demand worldwide forensic know-how to locate assets. RETEGO analyses relevant payment flow in order to discover illegally gained assets. Close cooperation with internationally specialised law-firms makes RETEGO one of the top addresses in asset-tracing.

We optimise your IT so that in case of damage a complete documentation of data-flow and traces is possible.

Product Piracy: This phenomenon has reached a dimension which is reflected in significant losses in turnover.
