The traditional playbook for compliance programs is outdated  and in need of a refresh.  Many programs rely on processes that impose business costs without driving clear value. We take our government and in-house experience to help programs launch successful metrics-based compliance programs.  We also help organizations manage crises and investigations deftly and discreetly–bringing our far-reaching network into play to ensure global reach and best in class service. 

Matt and Carl founded Gentic to meet a growing need in the market: senior-level, cross-functional guidance for organizations who must continue to grow and succeed while facing  unprecedented legal, ethical, and operational risks. The rapid rise of artificial intelligence and emerging technology, evolving regulatory expectations, and mounting pressure on in-house teams demand more than static policies; instead, organizations need  adaptive and agile strategies to capture  opportunity while navigating the many business challenges that lie ahead.

We believe sensitive matters should be handled by experienced practitioners who have expertise operating in a wide range of cultures and scenarios.  We manage matters the way a sophisticated in-house team would – putting the client (and its people) first and managing them with a smart use of resources.
