Governance, Risk & Compliance

Your company is preparing for external investment and investors are scrutinising your governance structures. The board has identified governance gaps following a management failure. Your organisation is growing and informal governance arrangements are no longer adequate.

Siyenro designs a governance framework proportionate to your organisation — covering board composition and charter, delegation of authority matrix, key governance policies, and the reporting and accountability mechanisms that bring governance to life.

Your business is subject to multiple regulatory frameworks and you have no coordinated approach to managing compliance across them. A compliance failure has occurred because no one was clearly responsible for a specific obligation.

Siyenro maps all your regulatory obligations, assigns ownership, establishes monitoring and reporting processes, and builds a compliance calendar — creating the systematic compliance management programme that eliminates the risk of regulatory failures falling through the cracks.

A fraud has occurred and you want to understand how it happened and how to prevent recurrence. You are scaling rapidly and want to ensure fraud risks are identified and managed proactively as the business grows.

Siyenro conducts a comprehensive fraud risk assessment using established fraud risk frameworks — identifying your highest-exposure fraud scenarios, assessing the effectiveness of existing controls, and delivering a prioritised fraud risk mitigation plan.

Unusually high expenses in a particular department have triggered suspicion of fraudulent activity. An anonymous tip has alleged that a procurement manager is accepting kickbacks from suppliers. Cash receipts are not reconciling with sales records.

Siyenro deploys a forensic investigation team to gather and analyse documentary and digital evidence, interview relevant individuals, and produce a detailed investigation report — clearly establishing whether fraud has occurred, quantifying any loss, and identifying the individuals involved.

A director or senior employee is suspected of diverting company funds for personal use. A supplier relationship has been flagged as potentially involving undisclosed personal benefits to a company employee.

Siyenro traces financial flows, analyses transaction patterns, reviews communications evidence, and interviews relevant parties — establishing a factual record that supports disciplinary action, civil recovery, or criminal prosecution.

A commercial dispute is heading to litigation and your legal team needs an independent financial expert to analyse and present financial evidence. A court or arbitration panel has requested an independent expert report on financial matters.

Siyenro prepares rigorous, court-ready expert witness reports and provides testimony support for your legal proceedings — applying forensic accounting methodology to quantify losses, analyse disputed transactions, and present financial findings in a form the court can act upon.

Your external auditor requires an IT audit as part of the financial statement audit. You are implementing a new ERP system and want an independent assessment of controls before going live. A system failure has resulted in financial data discrepancies.

Siyenro conducts a comprehensive information systems audit — reviewing IT general controls (change management, access control, operations, backup), application controls, and data integrity — providing your board and auditors with independent assurance on your IT environment.

You have no clear picture of your cybersecurity risk exposure. A competitor has suffered a significant cyberattack and you want to understand your own vulnerability. You are being asked by a major client or insurer to demonstrate adequate cybersecurity controls.

Siyenro assesses your cybersecurity posture against established frameworks (ISO 27001, NIST), identifying specific vulnerabilities and control gaps — and delivers a prioritised remediation roadmap that your IT team can act on immediately.

Your organisation is pursuing ISO 27001 certification and needs a pre-certification gap assessment. A regulatory inspection is approaching and you want to verify your PDPA technical compliance. A data breach has raised questions about your information security controls.

Siyenro conducts a compliance gap audit against your specific standard or regulatory requirement, produces a detailed findings report, and provides a remediation plan that closes identified gaps — preparing your organisation for certification or regulatory inspection.

You have become aware of the PDPA but have no clear picture of your compliance obligations or current position. A client or partner has asked for confirmation of your PDPA compliance status. You want to understand what the PDPA means for your specific business before committing to a compliance programme.

Siyenro conducts a structured PDPA readiness assessment — reviewing your data collection practices, processing activities, privacy notices, consent mechanisms, and security controls — and delivers a gap analysis report with a prioritised compliance roadmap.

You cannot answer basic questions about what personal data your organisation holds and where it is stored. A new business process involves collecting sensitive personal data and you want to assess the privacy risks before launch.

Siyenro conducts a structured data mapping exercise across your organisation, producing a comprehensive Record of Processing Activities (ROPA) and, where applicable, a Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) — the foundational documentation required for PDPA compliance.

The PDPA requires your organisation to appoint a DPO but a full-time hire is not justified. You need ongoing expert oversight of your privacy compliance programme. A data breach or regulatory query requires a qualified DPO to manage the response.

Siyenro provides a named, qualified DPO on a flexible retainer — overseeing your PDPA compliance programme, advising on new processing activities, managing data subject requests, and handling regulatory notifications — giving you expert privacy governance without the overhead of a permanent hire.

You are aware of growing ESG expectations from buyers and investors but have no clear picture of your current ESG position. Your organisation is listed on the CSE and SLFRS S1/S2 compliance is approaching. A major international buyer has sent an ESG questionnaire.

Siyenro conducts a comprehensive ESG readiness assessment — reviewing your governance structures, environmental practices, social policies, and existing disclosures — and delivers a gap analysis and prioritised improvement roadmap.

Your organisation is among the top 100 CSE-listed entities and SLFRS S1/S2 compliance is mandatory for your current reporting period. You need to prepare sustainability disclosures but lack the internal expertise.

Siyenro manages your complete SLFRS S1 and S2 compliance reporting process — collecting and validating the required data, preparing disclosure narratives, and producing a sustainability report that meets CA Sri Lanka's mandatory standards.

An international buyer or financier is requiring a carbon footprint disclosure. You want to measure your emissions as the first step in a credible carbon reduction programme. You are preparing a GRI-aligned sustainability report for the first time.

Siyenro measures your organisation's carbon footprint using recognised GHG Protocol methodology, produces a baseline emissions inventory, and prepares a GRI-aligned sustainability report — giving you the credible, data-driven sustainability narrative that international stakeholders expect.
