CHARITIES & NON-PROFITS
GOVERNANCE · GLOBAL OPERATIONS · COMPLIANCE
International charities, NGOs, and non-profit organisations operating across multiple jurisdictions face unique legal challenges — regulatory compliance in each operating country, governance frameworks satisfying multiple jurisdictions, and cross-border fund flows under AML and sanctions compliance frameworks.
EVERY LEGAL DIMENSION.
EVERY JURISDICTION.
CHARITY REGISTRATION
Multi-jurisdiction charity registration — UK Charity Commission, US 501(c)(3), EU equivalents, and registration in operating jurisdictions across Africa, Asia, and the Middle East.
GOVERNANCE FRAMEWORKS
Constitutional documents, trustee governance, conflict of interest frameworks, and the legal architecture for boards overseeing international operations across multiple legal systems.
CROSS-BORDER FUND FLOWS
International funds transfer compliance — AML obligations, sanctions screening, correspondent banking relationships, and the legal documentation required by recipient country regulators.
EMPLOYMENT
Employment of international programme staff across operating countries — local employment law compliance, expatriate arrangements, and volunteer agreement frameworks.
PROGRAMME AGREEMENTS
Programme implementation agreements, partnership agreements with local NGOs, government grant agreements, and memoranda of understanding across all operating jurisdictions.
DATA PROTECTION
GDPR and data protection compliance for charities handling beneficiary and donor data across multiple jurisdictions — including data transfers to programme countries outside the EU.
