Overview
Why You Should Attend
White collar enforcement remains a top priority of the Department of Justice, SEC, CFTC, and other U.S. and foreign agencies. In recent years, the government has maintained its focus on traditional priorities such as insider trading, market manipulation, accounting/disclosure, and anti-corruption while moving aggressively into newer areas such as close examination of compliance programs, prosecutions in the national security space, and developing new programs to encourage whistleblowers to provide information relating to corporate wrongdoing. The government routinely uses investigative tools such as data analytics, review of communications on personal devices, and “knock and talk” interviews of current and former company employees by federal agents. Expectations for corporate self-reporting and cooperation also continue to evolve. This unique program will give you the background and tools necessary to handle white collar cases and civil enforcement actions, and to design and implement effective compliance and risk management strategies. You will hear directly from current and former high-level officials in many of the country’s top enforcement agencies, along with in-house counsel and leading defense practitioners, about the current and future priorities for the government and the practical implications for your company or clients.
