The Dutch branch of Savills has earned the ISAE 3402 Type II accreditation for the seventh year in a row, confirming its commitment to strong internal controls. For the first time, the entire valuation team was subject to evaluation, expanding beyond the limited client scope of previous years. The audit process was conducted by Securance, a company expert in risk management and cybersecurity.
Martijn Onderstal, the head of valuation at Savills Netherlands, emphasizes the changing needs in valuation due to the rise of IT and data. With increased demands for compliance by the NRVT and RICS, Savills prioritizes data security and quality. The ISAE 3402 accreditation highlights the team’s rigorous work processes and controls, enabling them to provide high-quality, data-informed advice to all their clients.
Koen van der Aa from Securance points out that their approach goes beyond conventional risk management and cybersecurity to future-proof organizations. He praises the new ISAE 3402 accreditation of Savills as a testament to their professionalism and commitment to quality and innovation.
The footnote informs that ISAE 3402 Type II is an internationally recognized standard that speaks to the trustworthiness of information, mainly for service organizations.
