Ascendant has brought together leading consultants in the industry to create a new approach to compliance for investment managers, broker dealers and hedge funds worldwide. Our experienced team shares a philosophy and commitment to innovation, to the highest quality client service and to educational training and technological solutions. We are unique in our approach to global compliance, leveraging our US locations in Connecticut, San Francisco and New York City to support more than 450 investment businesses across the asset management and securities industries in the UK and the US. Our philosophy is straightforward: compliance should not be difficult. By removing the complexities and addressing misapprehensions, we aim to make compliance a source of strength for our clients. Compliance is essentially a business ethos and methodology, defined by high standards of client care and business practice. However, underlying these simple concepts are volumes of ever-changing prescriptive rules and regulations. Ascendant Compliance Management can help your business put compliance into perspective by guiding you through the regulations. By ensuring that senior management understands compliance controls arrangements, we aim to ensure that good compliance becomes an integral part of the way your firm conducts business. Ascendant will help your firm create a culture of compliance and make compliance a source of strength, wherever you operate.
