COMPLIANCE & AUDIT

Compliance is a NECESSITY in today’s modern world. The NEED TO COMPLY was brought into the spotlight after large corporate collapses in the early 2000’s. Since then countries around the world have INTRODUCED their own ACTS's to drive improvements in the corporate environment.

Whilst there is always costs involved to implement solutions to protect against these events reoccurring there is a benefit to do so. A solution such as RecWise provides an ENVIRONMENT where you can standardise and document the process for the Month End Financial Close.
