Director leads new service at Collas Crill

Collas Crill Compliance 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 led by director Sandra Lawrence, pictured, who has more than 21 years’ experience within the financial services industry. A fellow and chartered professional with the International Compliance Association, she has joined the firm from another professional services provider in Guernsey where she was a director and the head of risk and compliance.

‘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,’ said Guernsey managing partner Christian Hay.

‘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.’
