This week the gang returns to its four focused topics. After the commentary we follow with rants.
- Matt Kelly is now convinced that the Trump Risk is a real thing. How can compliance professionals help companies in the age where reputational issues can arise literally with one tweet by the President or one administration policy which goes south?
- Tom Fox explores the key themes in the SocGen/Legg Mason FCPA enforcement actions.
- Jonathan Marks joins us a special guest and takes a look at how the US Supreme Court decision in Digital Realty Trust v. Somers severely damaged internal whistleblower/hotline systems as it removed retaliation protection from employees who go internally first and not to the SEC. How can companies win back employee’s trust on this issue?
- Jay Rosen considers that both the head of the SEC and No. 2 at DOJ have recently given speeches talking about corporate culture. With this new emphasis by regulators, what should compliance be doing in response?
