What the day one Bondi Memos mean for compliance

by Hui CHEN

“As I predicted last month, in a time of uncertainties and conflicting ethics and expectations, a purely compliance-focused approach— focused on just following the rules— will flounder. If your compliance program exists only because of fear of the DOJ, it has no reason to exist if that fear is removed. And if your DEI initiative is not based on value-driven conviction, it is not likely to withstand the current of backlash.”
