White Collar Enforcement: Exploring Major Changes in the DOJ’s Corporate Enforcement Efforts
The Department of Justice (DOJ) has recently announced policy changes to strengthen its efforts in combating corporate and white-collar crime. The changes focus on three major initiatives: the requirements for cooperation credit eligibility, the appropriate resolution for a corporate defendant, and the need for businesses to review their compliance program.
With the new administration, investigations and new enforcement actions continue to evolve. Thus, compliance practitioners should stay in the loop to avoid violations and potential litigation.
Listen as experienced white-collar litigator Vince Farhat (Jeffer Mangels Butler & Mitchell LLP) provides the audience with an in-depth discussion of the latest enforcement trends and developments surrounding the white-collar crime. The speaker, among other things, will offer practical strategies to comply with this ever-changing regulatory landscape.
