Risk Management
In order to prevent unintended scandals from surfacing within corporate activities, it is extremely important to establish a risk management and compliance system. If such scandals were to occur, we will promptly and appropriately carry out prevention of damage expansion and compensation for victims, and minimize loss of corporate value and reputation. In particular, in a global and complex business environment, if the response to certain risks are delayed or misdirected, it will significantly affect the entire business.
At ZeLo, we provide general legal advice related to publicizing risk management measures, including but not limited to the preparation of disclosure documents, assessing the necessity of disclosure, and crafting necessary responses as the company’s external adviser as soon as scandals occur. We also provide explanations to government offices and prepare reports and documents as well as represent the company in audits. We see every matter through by continuing to support the company even for negotiations and litigation.
