Compliance Speaking for Legal and Financial Firms


The front line of running a law firm or investment company has never been a more complicated and potentially hazardous environment in terms of the potential confrontation with regulators and risk. Given the enforcement environment in the US, UK, as well as other countries, it has never been more critical that those in the trenches receive a consistent ethical message, targeted training and the occasional brutal ‘warning shot’, to drive the message home.


Michael Kimelman provides firms the opportunity to put an agonizing story and human face on the dry world of regulatory compliance. His story is a stark ‘cautionary tale’ that offers legal and financial firms a compelling avenue to enhance their compliance efforts beyond the traditional “bolt-on” set of rules and procedures.


Michael shares his own perfect storm as a unique perspective to help organizations better understand how corruption is confronted at the field level, in order to develop tools which are better calibrated to those realities.
