Whistleblowing Investigations

We support companies in verifying the reliability of anonymous reports and managing potential internal threats.

Whistleblowing is a key tool for corporate transparency, enabling the reporting of unlawful conduct or irregularities within organisations, whether public or private.

In Italy, whistleblowing is governed by Law No. 179/2017, which protects whistleblowers and requires companies to handle reports in a way that complies with confidentiality and regulatory requirements.
Kriteria offers a specialised investigative service to verify the validity of reports received, identifying conduct that could potentially harm the company and its material, intangible and human resources.

Using a discreet and structured methodology, we support Supervisory Bodies under Legislative Decree 231 and prevention officers in assessing, tracing and resolving reported cases, while ensuring full compliance with the legal protections in place.
