Stay sound as you move fast.

Enterprise risk, AI governance, regulatory compliance, and operational resilience — the discipline that lets a company move quickly without breaking, and turns compliance from a cost into an edge.

In 2026, governing the AI you deploy is a board-level issue — and a billable one.

What it is

The problem, and how we solve it.

Speed without soundness is how good companies break. This service builds the discipline that lets you move fast safely: identifying the risks that actually matter, governing the AI you deploy, staying ahead of regulation rather than behind it, and building the resilience to keep running when something goes wrong.

AI governance has become the urgent frontier. With the EU AI Act in force from 2026 and India's framework evolving, governing model risk, data, and the systems you deploy is now a board-level responsibility — and, increasingly, a billable advisory line rather than a cost centre. We help you get ahead of it, building governance that's audit-ready and proportionate.

Beyond AI, we cover enterprise risk, regulatory compliance, operational resilience and continuity, and the controls and assurance that turn 'trust us' into 'here's the evidence.' Done well, this work isn't a brake — it's what lets the rest of the business move with confidence.

What you get

The capabilities inside.

Engage one or several — most clients start with the sharpest one and expand.

Enterprise risk

The risks that actually matter — identified, prioritised, and owned.

AI governance

Model risk, data, and the EU AI Act — governed, audit-ready, and proportionate.

Regulatory & compliance

Ahead of the rules, not behind them — across the corridor's regimes.

Operational resilience

Continuity when it counts — the business keeps running through shocks.

Controls & assurance

Trust, evidenced — the controls that turn claims into proof.

Third-party & supply risk

The risk that lives outside your walls, brought inside your view.

How we work with you

Five ways to bring us in.

Scoped to the outcome, not the hours. Most engagements start with a short readiness conversation, then take one of these shapes.

01

Build sprint

A fixed-scope build that ships a working system in weeks — not a phased programme that never lands.

02

Embedded operator

We sit inside your team and run the function until it's self-sustaining, then hand it over.

03

Readiness program

We get you ready for what's next — a raise, a sale, an AI rollout — and close the gaps first.

04

Fractional capability

A senior CFO, CMO, CSO, CHRO, or CTO for as long as you need one — full weight, part time.

05

Principal partnership

Where we believe, we put skin in — capital alongside you, or work for a share of the upside.

Packages

Fixed-scope ways to start.

Productised entry points — clear scope, clear outcome.

Audit

AI Governance Audit

Where your AI exposes you — and the proportionate controls to close it, EU AI Act-aware.

Framework

Risk Framework

The enterprise risks that matter, prioritised and owned — not a 200-page binder.

Resilience

Resilience Plan

Continuity for the shocks that would actually hurt — tested, not theoretical.

Where it lands

Two angles, in the sectors we know.

Risk work lands hardest where speed, regulation, and complexity collide.

Questions, answered

The things people ask first.

Is AI governance really urgent now?

Yes. With the EU AI Act in force and India's rules evolving, governing the AI you deploy is a board-level risk in 2026 — and increasingly a billable line, not an afterthought.

Won't risk work just slow us down?

Done well, it does the opposite. The point is to let you move fast without breaking — risk identified and owned so the business can act with confidence.

Do you do the compliance or just advise on it?

We build the frameworks, controls, and governance and help you operate them — proportionate to your stage, not a binder nobody reads.

How does this connect to your other work?

It governs what we and you build — including AI systems from the Build group — and informs Capital's diligence and our distressed-intelligence venture, Errored Coin.
