Corporate Criminal Offences [CCO] Guidance & Support
Businesses connected to the UK could fall foul of the Criminal Finances Act 2017.
As a strict liability offence, it is the responsibility of every corporation to take steps to prevent instances of corporate criminal offences from occurring within their business. The legislation is aimed at defeating certain forms of financial tax crime. Though a UK law, it applies to all businesses connected to the UK, irrespective of their country of origin.

Your company and your people could fall foul of these laws if the appropriate procedures have not been put in place. Being a strict liability, the only accepted defence in any such charge is one whereby the business has put in place the appropriate policies and procedures, including staff training.
This is where Briars Group supports our clients by ensuring that procedures and training have been designed, implemented and then managed at a level commensurate with the nature of the client’s business.
Briars Group offer a clear, compliant, and effective preventative measures package. We’ll help your organisation put everything in place to ensure you are protected and train your employees to manage the process in house. We’ll stay on hand to answer any questions and update your teams every time relevant legislation changes.
