This year's
Ethics and Compliance Symposium will build on the success of
last year's inaugural conference, which was featured in The Wall Street Journal.
Keeping an organization in compliance with the
ever-changing regulatory landscape can be a massive
undertaking. This one-day conference will provide attendees
with practical advice for and real-world examples of the
issues that ethics and compliance officers face today.
The conference will begin with an explanation of political
risk forecasting using various data points from author and
social scientist Dr. Philip Tetlock. Dr. Tetlock's framework
will help companies understand how to accurately utilize
external and internal data to create a risk-based compliance
program.
The conference will also include sessions discussing
privacy, hospitality, using technology in compliance programs,
global compliance challenges, and joint venture issues, as
well as a Latin American–focused panel with speakers from
government-controlled companies. Additionally, Morgan Lewis
will present code-of-conduct benchmarking data from Fortune
500 companies in the form of interactive polling questions
that will highlight changes from 2011–2012 codes of conduct,
including which companies have changed facilitation payment,
social media, and trade control policies.
The conference will feature a faculty of leading in-house
compliance lawyers from industries ranging from retail to
energy, as well as the following speakers:
- George J.
Terwilliger, III, Co-Chair of Morgan Lewis's
White Collar Litigation & Government Investigations
Practice and former Deputy U.S. Attorney General, Acting
Attorney General, and federal prosecutor
- Lauren
Stevens, former GlaxoSmithKline in-house
lawyer who was accused of obstruction of justice by the DOJ
but vindicated at trial when the judge threw out the
government's case
