The Collas Crill Group has launched a new service, Collas Crill Compliance Limited (CCCL).
It will provide governance, risk and compliance and AML/CFT services to regulated and non-regulated businesses, working closely with Collas Crill's risk and regulatory legal team.
The new service is to be led by Director Sandra Lawrence, who has more than 21 years’ experience within the financial services industry.
Collas Crill Compliance Limited will offer its services not only to Guernsey and Jersey regulated financial services businesses but also to other businesses with compliance obligations such as estate agents, accountants and finance brokers.
Christian Hay, Guernsey Managing Partner said: "Collas Crill has experienced a substantial growth period recently, and the addition of Collas Crill Compliance will further strengthen the variety of service we are able to offer clients, existing and new.
"Doing compliance well is a key challenge that the vast majority of our clients face. While our Risk and Regulatory team has led the way in providing legal advice and support, we're increasingly being asked by clients for a broader type of compliance support. By providing more all encompassing governance, risk and compliance services, we aim to guide our clients safely through the compliance maze well ahead of the need to call lawyers arising.
"We are extraordinarily lucky to have Sandra heading this up. One of a small band of compliance professionals in Guernsey who have earned the respect of industry and regulators alike, in a variety of different settings, Sandra combines a deep professional interest in compliance and governance systems with a track record of getting things done.
"At Collas Crill, we pride ourselves on never standing still, and expanding our services with a new arm to the business is a prime example of that."
Ms Lawrence added: "I'm thrilled to be joining Collas Crill; somewhere with a culture and values that chime with my own. I look forward to building a client portfolio by working in partnership with familiar faces and forming new relationships."
