About

A platform built by compliance and investigation specialists.

Ethicaline is a firm dedicated to compliance and investigations. We built the TPRM platform out of our field practice: the conviction that assessing a third party also means knowing how to investigate when the risk demands it.

Our approach

The software structures. The expertise decides.

Compliance

A fine understanding of regulatory frameworks, from Sapin II to the new Asian rules.

Investigation

Real investigative know-how • fraud, corruption, beneficial owners, on-site verification.

Technology

A platform that industrializes the third-party program without diluting analytical rigour.

What sets us apart

Where others stop, we keep going.

Most TPRM platforms stop at the questionnaire. Our origin as an investigation firm lets us go all the way through the risk: in-depth enquiry, documentary and on-site, is part of the offering.

REGULATIONS • EUROPE & INTERNATIONAL

European and international frameworks.

France

Sapin II

Obligation to map risks and document the assessment of third parties (clients, suppliers, intermediaries) under the anti-corruption regime.

How Ethicaline TPRM helps: Sapin II requires a third-party integrity due-diligence programme. Ethicaline TPRM is the risk-assessment-triage and due-diligence engine that runs it • risk-tiered screening of intermediaries, suppliers and partners for corruption, sanctions and reputational red flags, with continuous monitoring and an auditable record for the AFA.
European Union

CS3D / CSDDD

EU corporate sustainability due diligence: identifying, preventing and remediating harms along the value chain.

How Ethicaline TPRM helps: CS3D requires human-rights and environmental due diligence across your chain of activities. Ethicaline TPRM powers the third-party assessment layer • screening and monitoring partners and suppliers for adverse media, sanctions and integrity red flags • feeding your broader due-diligence programme. We power the third-party screening, not the full ESG framework.
Germany

LkSG

Supply-chain due-diligence act: risk analysis and corrective measures across suppliers.

How Ethicaline TPRM helps: LkSG requires due diligence on human-rights and environmental risks in your supply chain. Ethicaline TPRM is the screening engine for your suppliers • risk-based assessment, adverse-media and sanctions checks, continuous monitoring, documented for reporting.
United States

FCPA

Anti-corruption law with extraterritorial reach: due diligence on intermediaries and business partners.

How Ethicaline TPRM helps: The FCPA exposes you to liability for the conduct of your intermediaries. Ethicaline TPRM delivers the third-party integrity due diligence underpinning an effective compliance defence • screening for corruption, sanctions and ownership risk before and throughout each engagement.
European Union

DORA

DORA governs digital operational resilience for the financial sector.

How Ethicaline TPRM helps: Ethicaline TPRM screens and monitors the third-party providers in DORA's scope (including ICT providers) • sanctions/PEP, adverse media, beneficial ownership, continuous monitoring, audit trail. We support your third-party due-diligence and risk-assessment obligations, including toward your ICT providers • we do not perform DORA's core operational-resilience assessment, and do not make a firm "DORA compliant."
Asia-Pacific

The new generation of Asian frameworks.

Asia-Pacific is accelerating. Singapore's MAS is redefining third-party risk, Australia's APRA imposes a DORA-comparable framework, and China is overhauling its supply-chain rules. A program that was adequate three years ago now has gaps.

MAS TPRM Guidelines

Issued March 2026, they supersede the old outsourcing rules and extend expectations to all third-party arrangements: register, governance, full lifecycle and sub-contractors.

How Ethicaline TPRM helps: MAS expects financial institutions to manage third-party risk across the full lifecycle. Ethicaline TPRM is the risk-assessment-triage and screening engine for that programme • risk-tiered assessment, sanctions and PEP checks, adverse media, continuous monitoring and a documented audit trail for your third-party register.
Australia

APRA CPS 230

Operational-risk standard in force since July 2025 (material-provider contract compliance due by July 2026). Monitoring and continuity of critical providers.

How Ethicaline TPRM helps: APRA CPS 230 requires material-provider monitoring and continuity. Ethicaline TPRM supports the third-party risk-assessment layer • screening, assessment and continuous monitoring of your material providers, with a documented register and audit trail. We support your provider due-diligence obligations; we do not replace your operational-risk framework.
China

Supply-chain decrees & AUCL

Decrees 834 and 835 (2026) govern information gathering and due diligence. China also concentrates most FCPA actions and requires China-specific supplier verification.

How Ethicaline TPRM helps: China's evolving supply-chain and anti-corruption rules require China-specific due diligence. Ethicaline TPRM delivers the screening and investigative diligence layer • sanctions, adverse media and ownership verification adapted to the China context, with rigorous documentation.
Hong Kong

HKMA • Operational Resilience

Strengthened expectations on operational resilience and provider management for financial institutions.

How Ethicaline TPRM helps: HKMA's operational-resilience expectations include third-party provider management. Ethicaline TPRM is the screening and monitoring engine for your critical providers • assessment, continuous monitoring and audit trail.

How Ethicaline TPRM helps: Japan's FSA expects growing third-party risk management. Ethicaline TPRM supports the screening and due-diligence layer • graded assessment, continuous monitoring and documented provider register.
India

SEBI • BRSR

Business responsibility and sustainability reporting obligations, including the value chain, aligned with global standards.

How Ethicaline TPRM helps: SEBI BRSR requires value-chain ESG and sustainability reporting. Ethicaline TPRM powers the third-party ESG screening layer • assessment and document collection for your value-chain third parties. We support the third-party data-collection layer, not the full ESG reporting framework.

Our application

GDPR-compliant, by design.

Ethicaline TPRM handles sensitive third-party data. Data protection isn't a feature we bolted on • it's how the platform was built.

European data residency

The platform's technologies and components are chosen, by design, to be hosted within the European Union • in France and Germany. Your data resides in the EU.

Privacy by design

Privacy is an architectural decision, not a policy afterthought. We collect only the data needed to run assessments, and keep personal data minimal and purposeful.

GDPR-aligned architecture

The platform is built to align with GDPR from the ground up • EU data residency, data minimization, and controlled access as founding principles.

Authentication & access control

Access to the platform is authenticated, with role-based permissions that ensure users see only the data appropriate to their role.

Built on certified European infrastructure

Ethicaline TPRM is deployed on infrastructure hosted within the European Union • in France and Germany • selected specifically for European data-protection expectations.

The underlying infrastructure providers maintain recognized, independently-audited security and privacy certifications, and data processing agreements aligned with GDPR are in place across the technologies used:

SOC 2 Type II ISO 27001 EU Cloud Code of Conduct

These certifications are maintained by the infrastructure providers on which the platform is built, and are independently audited. Sources: Cloudflare Trust Hub, Supabase Security, Fly.io Compliance. Certification scope is that of each provider; Ethicaline inherits these controls through its use of their EU-region services.
