About De Compliance Afdeling

We make compliance understandable and practical.

With personal support and smart software, we make compliance clear and keep it that way. We explain what is needed, put it into practice and help with delivery. Organisations can demonstrate that they meet legal and regulatory requirements without having to research and maintain everything themselves.

Annemarie and Maarten of De Compliance Afdeling
How we work

From rules to a practical approach.

We determine what is needed, make responsibilities clear and keep agreements up to date.

Determine what is needed

We translate legislation into what matters for your organisation and explain what is not needed, too.

Make it clear who does what

Agreements and actions have an owner, a deadline and a clear outcome.

Keep it working

Regular checks and improvement reviews keep documents, actions and risks up to date.

Our story

Starting small. Growing together.

De Compliance Afdeling began at Maarten's dining table in 2021. A compliance officer and a programmer worked together on one idea: making compliance easier to understand and put into practice. Those small beginnings grew into a committed team of compliance officers, developers and commercial colleagues.

That early enthusiasm remains. We bring a straightforward Rotterdam approach: clear communication, taking responsibility and getting things done. Our backgrounds, expertise and ways of thinking differ. That is how we complement one another and consider challenges from different angles.

Our team

Compliance and software in one team.

Mission

We aim to provide organisations with a practical, comprehensive compliance programme. An approach that turns legislation into clear agreements, actions and responsibilities.
