Processes & Compliance Joint
A Trailblazer in Business Risk Management

In Latin America, emerging risks and frequent changes in the regulatory environment have made it essential for businesses to keep their risk management strategies up to date. Even large companies with extensive risk management and compliance teams are seeking advisory services to achieve this feat.

This is where Processes & Compliance Joint steps in. The company is driven by a mission to contribute to the sustainable development of businesses by providing consulting services that emphasize the best ethical, social and environmental practices.

“We work with Triple-A companies, primarily large international banking and insurance corporations operating in Mexico and across Latin America,” says Pablo Jimenez, CEO of Processes & Compliance Joint. “We provide them with the best-in-class advisory services needed to maintain robust and compliant risk management strategies.”

Jimenez brings extensive expertise in sustainability, governance, risk and compliance, forming the backbone of Processes & Compliance Joint. Under his leadership, the firm specializes in three core areas, including compliance, information security and the evolving landscape of Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG).

All these services can be well understood through instances of client success.

On the compliance front, Processes & Compliance Joint operates as a consulting service provider for one of the largest and oldest oils and lubricants companies in Mexico. This particular business was partially acquired by a prominent oil and gas corporation from Spain five years back, requiring them to establish a culture of compliance. In this scenario, the Mexican oils and lubricants company turned to Processes & Compliance Joint instead of creating an in-house compliance department.

The company has been working with the client for the past three years, serving as their compliance team. It has implemented the compliance program while managing the whistleblower channel, including the ethics hotline. Jimenez, in fact, himself is an independent member of the Ethics and Compliance Committee.

In another instance, Processes & Compliance Joint started implementing ISO 27001 framework last year for the largest insurance broker in Mexico and Latin America. Cybersecurity was critical for them due to the large number of customers. The company was approached by the insurance broker for information security management. Processes & Compliance Joint has supported the client’s vision by ensuring they obtain the necessary certification.

The success of the partnership has driven the client to look for additional services from the company, including business continuity management.

Similarly, when it comes to ESG, Processes & Compliance Joint assists clients in preparing sustainability reports aligned with the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) and implementing crucial frameworks. It also works as an independent third-party reviewer, verifying the reports under the GRI standards.

Apart from these services, Processes & Compliance Joint focuses on corruption, another crucial problem plaguing Mexico. Different segments of society have been permeated by this issue, driving businesses to implement anti-bribery measures, as no anti-corruption law focuses solely on corporations.

Processes & Compliance Joint emerges as the go-to partner for offering expert consultancy services to mitigate corruption risks. The skilled consultants are certified to implement the ISO 37001 standard—an anti-bribery management system (ABMS) standard for organizations.

For example, it helped one of the biggest cement companies in Mexico by uncovering more than five billion pesos worth of fraudulent activities that occurred over the past ten years. The company also provided the client with the best practices to remediate the issues and implement preventative measures to avoid future fraud. This project gave Processes & Compliance Joint substantial exposure in the market and the industry.

All these standout instances illustrate Processes & Compliance Joint’s perseverance and commitment to handling complex client requirements. Today, it stands at the forefront of delivering consulting services to businesses that struggle to manage risks.
