What are compliance and regulatory investigations?
Compliance and regulatory investigations are essential for ensuring that organisations adhere to laws, industry regulations, and internal policies. A proactive approach to compliance helps mitigate risks, protect reputation, and maintain stakeholder trust.
Key Types of Regulatory Issues:
- Financial Fraud – Investigating fraudulent activities to prevent financial misconduct, misappropriation, and corporate fraud.
- Anti-Bribery & Corruption – Ensuring compliance with FCPA, UK Bribery Act, and anti-corruption laws to prevent legal and ethical violations.
- Data Privacy Violations – Addressing breaches of GDPR, CCPA, and other data protection regulations to safeguard sensitive information.
- Environmental Non-Compliance – Ensuring adherence to environmental laws and sustainability regulations to avoid legal and reputational risks.
- Workplace Health & Safety Breaches – Investigating violations of occupational health and safety laws, reducing risks to employees and the organisation.
Whether triggered by whistleblower reports, audits, media scrutiny, or internal reviews, our team of experts mange high-risk, high profile investigations and conduct fact-based inquiries to assess the credibility of allegations, and safeguard your brand.

Common triggers for investigations
There are many factors that can initiate a compliance or regulatory investigation, including:
- Whistleblower complaints or internal reports
- Regulatory audits or inspections
- Media scrutiny or public allegations
- Internal findings during compliance reviews
- Industry-wide crackdowns by regulatory bodies
These triggers highlight the importance of maintaining a proactive approach to compliance, ensuring your organisation is prepared to manage potential risks and respond effectively when necessary.
By partnering with The Investigation Company, we can help you mitigate risks, strengthen compliance measures, and respond effectively to regulatory challenges.
The Investigation Company assisted us with a workplace grievance investigation and were fantastic throughout from start to finish. The communication throughout was great, as was the level of detail they provided within their follow up report. I would not hesitate in recommending them or using their services again.
“I am very happy with the service provided by The Investigation Company. Often in Operations we are so busy ensuring that our Service Users are well cared for, it is difficult for us to assign Managers to investigations. TIC do a fantastic job supporting us with investigations and by using TIC, we ensure investigations are impartial and outcomes are fair. The turnaround on investigations is really quick, which again is sometimes a struggle for us at Cygnet Health Care. I would thoroughly recommend TIC to support businesses.”
“The Investigation Company conducted a very complex racism investigation, you were superb, it was money well spent. We would spend the money and use your company again if we were to face the same situation.”
“I would also like to mention that I have had lots of superb feedback about your investigation – most people that were interviewed were very impressed by the investigator’s professionalism and the quick turnaround of their statements. My boss – the interim HR Director – said to me yesterday, “I do not know where you found The Investigation Company but they are good.”
“The Investigation Company provided an excellent and highly professional external investigation service for us. The team was always available when we needed anything, and the investigator was incredibly efficient, thorough and personable. All in all – it was perfect!”
