This program will focus on the corporate value of regularly conducting independent third party assessments of existing compliance programs and associated risk mitigation strategies.  Even the most robust and sophisticated compliance programs can benefit from regular independent assessments which, in addition to regulatory compliance checks, are designed to align your existing compliance program with the constantly evolving governance standards, benchmarking and changes to your business.  We will discuss the importance of such regular independent evaluation and benchmarking, as well as recent trends emerging due in part to the robust M&A market, pandemic environment, and heightened focus on ESG. 

This program will also focus on the proper reporting and implementation of such independent assessment findings within your corporate structure, taking into account the fiduciary duties and oversight of the Board of Directors, and expectations and roles of the compliance officer, senior management and office of general counsel.
