Compliance is no longer an administrative burden but part of responsible corporate governance. Executives – CEO, CFO, COO, Head of HR – face regulatory questions in more and more of their decisions.
We treat compliance not as a constraint but as the framework for safe operations: we bring a legal perspective to business questions and a business perspective to legal ones. Our work is also supported by AI-based tools – every result is reviewed by an expert. The company's data remains protected.
In a fast-changing regulatory environment we provide strategic direction and practical advice, and we guide the company through change – step by step.
We handle the company's compliance tasks on an ongoing basis: at the capacity needed, within agreed limits, with one dedicated partner as point of contact. We work directly with the company's leadership – CEO, CFO, COO, Head of HR – fitting into the existing organisation.
Safety Net adds expert oversight to the company's existing compliance processes at a low monthly fee. With Essential, Professional and Premium we handle the company's compliance tasks on an ongoing basis with a dedicated partner – 12 months for the price of 10 on an annual contract, red flag review included.
Every package fits into the company's organisation. We build on existing processes and responsible staff and support them with professional guidance – for example in bank KYC processes or when identifying ultimate beneficial owners (UBOs) in complex ownership structures.

Legal Compliance is the starting point. We support our clients throughout the company's life – in whichever situation the company is in:
We are engaged for your compliance function as a whole, not for one-off matters: we monitor changes, maintain your documentation and report to management regularly – as an in-house compliance function would.
Under Hungarian Act XXV of 2023, as a general rule employers with 50 or more employees; in certain sectors – such as financial services and entities subject to AML law – regardless of headcount. We clarify your specific obligations during the review.
The first 30-minute call is free. The Safety Net entry package starts at HUF 150,000 + VAT per month, the ongoing compliance packages at HUF 389,000 + VAT per month. We send the detailed terms sheet on request, and tailored needs get a tailored proposal.
No. The service fits into the company's organisation: we build on existing processes and responsible staff and provide professional guidance. For example, in bank KYC processes or when identifying ultimate beneficial owners (UBOs) in complex ownership structures, we set the criteria and review the outcome.
Depending on the area and the client's needs, it can fully replace or complement them. Where the law requires a company's own employee or manager to be designated – for example the designated person under the Hungarian AML Act – we provide professional support to that person rather than replacing them. For supervised financial institutions, outsourcing follows supervisory rules and the management body remains responsible.
Most likely yes, if the company uses any AI tool. The EU AI Act (Regulation (EU) 2024/1689) imposes obligations not only on developers but also on companies deploying AI systems; the rules on prohibited practices and staff AI literacy have applied since 2 February 2025, with further obligations phasing in.
AI-based tools help speed up our work, and every result is reviewed by an expert. Only content needed for the task – anonymised or non-personal – goes into an AI tool; we do not upload client-identifying data. The company's data remains protected and subject to attorney confidentiality.
Yes. In capital markets compliance we support issuers from handling inside information and maintaining insider lists to notifying managers' transactions and meeting disclosure obligations – before and after listing.
Our website runs in the European Union, in Clever Cloud's Paris data centre. During an engagement, documents are exchanged via Tresorit with end-to-end encryption; all materials shared are protected by attorney confidentiality.
