What is Compliance?

Regulatory compliance is not just about preventing problems and ensuring compliance with laws, rules and regulations. It is also about the positive impact a robust and ethical compliance program can have on a business or organization. In this course, we will discuss why compliance is important - from the needs of companies in highly regulated industries to avoiding fines and penalties and preventing reputational and economic nightmares. We will look at real-life examples of compliance and governance failures and their consequences, and consider strategies to avoid similar situations in our own organizations. You will be able to think about risk management in a new way and apply risk management strategies.
