Boards are being asked to approve AI governance frameworks built by people who’ve never sat in the room where the risk actually lands.

Asheva gives audit committees and boards a fiduciary-grade view of AI risk from someone who has reported directly to audit committees for decades and directed governance integration on a $71B acquisition.

The standard playbook no longer covers what's actually happening.

Asheva exists for this moment.

The risk landscape has changed. Most advisors haven't.

What Asheva Does

  • AI GOVERNANCE INFRASTRUCTURE

    For organizations deploying AI at scale.

  • BOARD & AUDIT COMMITTEE AI RISK ADVISORY

    For boards navigating AI as a material fiduciary concern.

  • M&A AI DUE DILIGENCE

    For acquirers, targets, and their transaction counsel.

  • REGULATORY RESPONSE

    For organizations facing DOJ, SEC, or Treasury scrutiny.

  • INTERNAL INVESTIGATIONS

    For boards and executives requiring independent oversight.

  • FRACTIONAL CHIEF COMPLIANCE OFFICER & GENERAL COUNSEL

    For AI companies and growth-stage organizations.

Why Asheva

You need someone who has been in this room before.

Asheva is led by Alicia Schwarz, former SVP and Chief Compliance Officer of The Walt Disney Company, where she advised senior executive leadership through some of the most consequential compliance situations in modern corporate history, directed the governance integration of a $71 billion acquisition, and managed regulatory responses to the DOJ, SEC, and U.S. Department of Treasury, as well as their international counterparts across multiple jurisdictions.

Advisor experience extends beyond Disney to Fortune 500 and multinational clients across defense, energy and specialty chemicals, including a UK-based specialty chemicals multinational, a global oilfield services company, a U.S. defense shipbuilder, and a French multinational energy company. These are sectors where AI and regulatory exposure aren’t theoretical, they’re existential.

This is not a framework built from research. It is experience built from consequence.
