Empowering Chinese Companies for Seamless Compliance

Impact Analysis and Gap Assessments

The first step in achieving robust cyber regulatory compliance is a detailed evaluation of your organization’s current posture against EU and German requirements. Our legal team defines the scope of all relevant obligations, ensuring clarity on which regulations – such as NIS2, GDPR, DORA, CRA, TISAX, and the EU AI Act – apply to your business. Building on this foundation, our compliance advisory team conducts a comprehensive gap analysis that goes far beyond a simple checklist. We conduct interviews with key stakeholders, review documentation, and perform technical inspections to uncover hidden vulnerabilities and compliance blind spots.

Design Your Roadmap and Executive Workshops

Once gaps and impacts are identified, PwC works with your leadership to design a tailored compliance roadmap that aligns with your strategic objectives and operational realities. This roadmap is more than a timeline – it is a dynamic plan that prioritizes remediation actions based on risk severity, regulatory deadlines, and resource availability. We help you define a target operating model for compliance, integrating governance structures, process controls, and technology solutions that ensure consistency, efficiency, and audit readiness across all business functions.

To facilitate organizational buy-in and effective execution, PwC offers executive workshops and management briefings. These sessions are customized for your leadership team, providing expert insights into regulatory trends, practical guidance on implementation, and interactive Q&A to address specific concerns. Our workshops foster a culture of compliance, empowering decision-makers with the knowledge and tools needed to champion regulatory initiatives. We also provide training modules for operational teams, ensuring that compliance is embedded throughout the organization.  

Compliance Implementation

PwC supports your organization through every stage of compliance implementation. Our multidisciplinary team works alongside your internal stakeholders to translate strategy into action, managing projects from initial concept to full operational integration. We assist in developing and updating policies, procedures, and technical controls to meet the specific requirements of EU and German regulations. This includes implementing data protection measures for GDPR, and configuring incident response protocols for NIS2 and DORA, and so on.

PwC provides hands-on support for technical inspections, document reviews, and process audits, ensuring that all compliance measures are practical, effective, and sustainable. We help you navigate regulatory reporting obligations, such as incident notification within 24 hours, and facilitate communication with European regulators and partners. Our team also manages cross-border compliance challenges, addressing data localization, export controls, and contractual requirements from OEMs and financial institutions.

By leveraging best practices and proven methodologies, PwC ensures that your compliance program not only meets legal standards but also enhances your organization’s cyber resilience and operational excellence.
