cooperation partners:
5TH ANNUAL COMPLIANCE MANAGEMENT DAY
Managing and Leading a Compliance Function
in Today‘s Changing Environment
As is the case for risk management functions, the expectations for compliance functions continue to grow. Not just regulators but Boards of Directors across industries are looking increasingly for the company to have an effective compliance function as part of the company’s overall
governance and internal controls framework. As these expectations grow, so too grows the need
for ensuring that the compliance function is properly positioned, authorized, resourced, and
managed.
The seminar builds on our earlier seminars. It allows for deeper focus on the unique challenges
that arise, regardless of industry, in
a) operating a compliance function,
b) finding strategies to tackle thorny compliance risk areas, and
c) working to embed compliance in the culture of the company.
At the same time through industry roundtable discussions the seminar will also enable participants to look at issues and raise questions specific to the business of their company. The seminar will be of benefit to companies having already an advanced compliance function as well as
those still in early stages or which are now contemplating creating one.
Join us and help us celebrate the 5th year anniversary of this special program.

10:50 – 11:40 The “Control” or the “Ethical” environment?
Nancy Higgins
Risk and compliance models often refer to the importance of having the right “control environment”. Is this
a complete approach? Are there companies that look
beyond controls and also systematically work to advance
and measure their “ethical environment”? And how does
this relate to current growing interest in “corporate
culture?”.
Followed by discussion, including comparative
experience at other companies.
