Collas Crill has launched a global regulatory and compliance service following the recent appointment of a new group managing director to head up the division.
The firm recently appointed Jersey-based Alex Ruddy to lead its regulatory and compliance team across the jurisdictions.
Ms Ruddy is a chartered accountant, having spent ten years of her career with ‘big four’ accountancy firms, and more latterly nine years as co-founder and director of a Jersey-based regulatory consultancy. She is also chair of the Institute of Directors Jersey branch.
On joining Collas Crill, she said: “Collas Crill’s international platform and commitment to best-in-class governance make it an exciting place to lead a regulatory and compliance team. I am looking forward to working across jurisdictions to ensure a consistent, robust approach that supports both client service and strategic ambition.”
Wayne Atkinson, partner at Collas Crill, said: “In today’s rapidly evolving business landscape, we understand that good corporate governance, proactive risk management, and compliance with relevant laws and regulations is paramount for establishing a resilient business model.
“Alex is well versed in helping businesses strengthen their governance frameworks and control environments, taking a pragmatic approach to corporate governance matters. Having Alex at the helm of our service strengthens our ability to help clients navigate regulatory complexities, allowing them to fully focus on the growth and success of their business.”
