Advanced Compliance and Ethics Workshop 2013
October 24, 2013 - October 25, 2013
CLE - Live Seminar
USA
Description
Legal drivers for corporate compliance and ethics programs continue to grow in complexity and importance. Compliance programs are now widely expected by enforcement personnel and key stakeholders, and good practices continue to evolve. In addition, the costs of non-compliance have never been greater. Enforcement risks increase as governments work together more than ever before, and harsh penalties are increasingly becoming the norm both inside and outside the U.S. Moreover, the whistleblower provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act have underscored in a broad way the general importance of compliance programs to effective mitigation.
At the Advanced Compliance and Ethics Workshop 2013, leading experts in the field will discuss current developments, heightened standards, and practical tips on how to ensure that your company’s compliance and ethics program satisfies increasingly rigorous standards. Learn about the latest and most effective approaches to program areas such as risk assessment, program structure and management, training and other communications, auditing and monitoring, helpline procedures and implementation, and how to keep senior management and the board informed about and contributing to the program.
