COMPLIANCE
Compliance management, breach of compliance, whistleblowing – no business undertaking can escape these topics. What once was used as a basis to draft principles of good conduct and to preempt cases of corruption is now the scourge of every executive. Many decisions that need to be made by directors, managers and supervisory boards require them to ride on the razor’s edge and can result in unexpected liability.
Whistleblowing threatens the working atmosphere and can result in over-hasty suspicions. It is a challenge for every business to deal with this topic in an appropriate manner.
