Corporate compliance programs are most often associated with large companies but smaller organizations are not exempt from compliance program mandates. This web cast will explore the challenges - resource, culture and other - of developing and implementing compliance programs for small companies. The program will also review emerging best practices and recent legal developments relating to compliance programs for businesses of all size. Join these speakers:

  • Jeff Kaplan, Partner, Kaplan & Walker LLP
  • Kenneth Manne, General Counsel, Vice President & General Counsel, Nuclear Electric Insurance Limited

Among the topics of this program are:

  • How to create – and maintain – compliance programs tailored to a company’s size.
  • "Take-aways" which can be derived from smaller companies that have compliance programs.
  • Emerging best practices related to risk assessment, board oversight and other elements of compliance programs.
  • Recent cases giving companies “credit” for having effective compliance programs.
