After several highly visible corruption scandals uncovered in Operation Car Wash (Lava Jato) shook investor confidence to the core, companies throughout Brazil are working to more proactively manage risk―not simply as a business differentiator but as a business imperative.
With resources in short supply, local compliance practitioners and legal teams require highly experienced insights and hands-on support to disprove facts in legal disputes and investigations, analyze volumes of data, or assess the effectiveness of ethics and compliance programs.
From its base in São Paulo, StoneTurn helps organizations and their counsel to operationalize compliance and address complex investigative and litigation challenges with data-driven insights through a practical, collaborative approach. We work to identify the sources of criminal and unethical conduct, and implement procedures and protocols to avoid future problems. StoneTurn also serves as a court- and government-appointed independent monitor to assess remediation efforts. Turn to us in complex situations for subject matter and industry expertise, reliable investigative results, objectivity and a proven track record as a trusted adviser.
