Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act (ECCTA) Risk Gauge

Future proof your business in light of changes to corporate formation and governance, risk and compliance brought by ECCTA.  Stay ahead. Stay compliant.

Recently enacted UK legislation aims to tackle economic crime and improve transparency in corporate structures. The Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act 2023 (ECCTA) creates new risk factors for people tasked with forming, administering and governing corporates (including LPs and LLPs). This is especially true for those involved in economic crime compliance. Understanding the impact of this new legislation on your business is paramount, and that's where AG's ECCTA Risk Gauge© comes in. 

Our innovative tool is designed with simplicity and efficiency in mind, guiding you through a series of carefully crafted questions to help you assess the impact of ECCTA on your business operations. You'll gain immediate access to a summary analysis, tailored specifically to your business needs. This personalised summary offers clear guidance on navigating the complexities of ECCTA as it comes into force.

The beauty of the ECCTA Risk Gauge© lies in its ability to demystify the intricacies of the new legislation, translating complex legal requirements into relevant and actionable insights, unique to your business. 

Whether you're concerned about the enhanced powers of the Registrar of Companies, the new 'senior manager' test for corporate attribution or the new corporate criminal offence of failing to prevent fraud, using our ECCTA Risk Gauge© can help illuminate the path to effective compliance.
