Legal
Confirm the decision is legally sound: validity of the decision, existence of powers and authorisations, need for approvals.
Our Methodology
A structured process, prior to the detailed analysis of the decision
Our mission is to strengthen the quality and robustness of the decisions taken by our client companies’ leaders, through an integrated approach to legal, organisational, compliance and strategic considerations. Our support is based on identifying the elements that serve as the foundation for the engagement.
The prerequisites
Identify what the leader is actually seeking to achieve.
Identify the company bodies and partners likely to be affected by the decision.
Confirm that the conditions for carrying out the decision are met.
Analysis framework
Confirm the decision is legally sound: validity of the decision, existence of powers and authorisations, need for approvals.
Assess whether regulatory obligations or internal procedures apply, with regard to the company’s activity and the operation of its bodies.
Analyse whether the foreseeable effects of the decision are compatible with the current organisation: who does what, adequacy of responsibilities.
Analyse whether the decision strengthens or weakens governance: information flows, compliance with internal rules, authority of the bodies, conformity of the procedure with legal requirements.
Confirm the decision serves the objectives and detect any contradictions.
On the basis of this framework, an assessment is produced for each axis separately, leading to a global recommendation that takes into account the conclusions drawn from each axis.
