Dozens of Satisfied Customers

“Pierre has been working at our bank for more than a year on various compliance topics such as FATCA, EMIR, MIFID, etc. He is not only very skilled in this field but also knows a lot about other compliance issues such as sanctions, anti-money laundering, anti- corruption, aggresive tax planning and KYC.
He also succeeds in building a bridge between compliance and the business by giving presentations, by substantiating why a certain decision is made and especially by thinking along with the business.”
Hans-Erik Zwaagstra

“Pierre has had an assignment within the team CDD International. It was quite a major project which took some months. He did a good job.”
Stef van Lammeren

ABN AMRO Bank N.V.

“During 5 months I have worked with Pierre. During this period I’ve learned a lot of new compliance issues from him on the area of Emir, Dodd Frank, code of conduct, CDD/AML and governance. He was able to translate new developments in this areas amongst others into practical procedures in a small professional business environment.”
Michiel Peeperkorn RA CAMS

Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ (Holland) N.V.

“For two months Pierre and I worked together. The main focus was on the development of the (management) information reports. Pierre is a person who really want to understand what he is working on and wants to develop his own vision before delivering. Many of his ideas have found a place in the final version of the developed reports.”
