“I’m very familiar with the qualifications of the staff at Chartwell Compliance, and it was a straightforward decision to reach out to them to help and assist in our ongoing compliance needs. Knowing that experienced compliance professionals would be reviewing our work and offering fair and objective recommendations was a very important factor in selecting Chartwell. Having been on both sides of the fence –consultant and banker – it is critical to have a good working relationship with any consultant and Chartwell’s compliance professionals are easy to work with. I would recommend that you consider them for your compliance needs.”

"Chartwell Compliance has provided our bank with all of the things you would
expect - years of tried and true experience, a thorough eye that protects our bank from potential regulator findings, a wealth of knowledge - but also so many qualities which go above and beyond the required. It has been so refreshing and convenient to work with a compliance team that seems to be an expert in everything! Loan, deposit, and BSA compliance - we trust Chartwell for all of it. The single most important benefit for our bank has been the accessibility and availability. I can contact them on any question or issue, big or small, and they take the time to not just give me the answer, but also show me where I can find the answers myself, and make sure that I truly understand - and all at no additional expense to the bank! We trust Chartwell implicitly, and look forward to many more years of working with them."

“We have been working with Chartwell for months now and are extremely pleased with the results in regards to multiple facets of our project. From the initial scope and introductions to finalizing some fine points, Daniel and his team have been superb at ensuring everything is accounted for, tracked and executed in a timely fashion – all while staying on budget. There are several potential ‘traps’ in navigating BSA compliance and the State licensing process to which Chartwell has helped our company navigate it all in order to put us in the best position to capitalize on our investment in the shortest time frame possible. Beyond the superior expertise and technical knowledge that Chartwell brings to the table, I think the best value they deliver is on the communication side of things. Every email or phone call is returned promptly with a direct, straight-forward answer. This greatly helps in timely decision-making in order to get over the next milestone. Professional, positive, perfect for what we need in a fast-paced and rapidly changing industry.”
