Strategic Advisory · Established 2014

Governance Is
Not Paperwork.

Quillhaven & Co. advises organizations on risk, controls and governance — the unglamorous structure that decides how badly a bad day goes.

Our Work

Four areas of work. One duty of care.

Every area below is about the same thing: knowing what could go wrong before it does, and being able to show you looked.

01

Risk & Exposure

What the organization is actually exposed to, ranked by consequence rather than by how easy it is to measure.

02

Controls & Assurance

Designing controls people will follow, and testing the ones already in place against how work is really done.

03

Governance & Board

Committee structure, reporting and decision records — so that the board can demonstrate it governed, not just met.

04

Regulatory Readiness

Preparing for examination, audit or enquiry, including the documentation nobody keeps until they need it.

Financial Services

Managers, advisers, insurers and lenders under continuous supervision.

02

Legal & Professional

Partnerships with client money, conflicts and privilege to manage.

03

04

Operations where safety and environmental obligations are the binding constraint.

05

Education & Nonprofit

Institutions accountable to members, donors, regulators and the public.

Providers and suppliers under clinical and privacy obligations.

The Practice

A practice, not a platform.

Quillhaven & Co. is an advisory practice working across the Americas, Europe and Asia Pacific. Within Aldermoor Trust, we have kept the practice deliberately small, because this work depends on judgement that does not scale by adding people.

Our work is partner-led, conviction-weighted, and built around a small number of engagements at a time. We do not pursue volume. We pursue outcomes the principal can name three years later.
