ROOT CAUSES OF INVESTIGATIONS – WHY THINGS GO WRONG

ACi and Freshfields invite you to an exclusive panel debate and networking event.

Thursday, 27th June 2019

65 Fleet St, Temple, London EC4Y 1HT

Freshfields has analysed the root causes of many of the most significant investigations of recent years to understand why things go wrong within companies. This analysis identified several common cultural, behavioural and governance issues behind a diverse range of corporate crises.

Joining Freshfields’ Global Investigations & Corporate Crime team will be Steve Young CEO, ACi, and Albert “B.J.” Stieglitz, Assistant Chief, Fraud Section, Criminal Division of the US Department of Justice. BJ has previously completed a secondment to the UK Financial Conduct Authority and is currently on secondment to the UK Serious Fraud Office. ​

The panel discussion will consider:

• the common factors behind many investigations;
• the approach key authorities take to assessing these factors when they arise in an investigation; and
• insights on effective solutions to ensure companies have the right culture and governance structures in place to address these risks.

The panel discussion will be followed by networking drinks.
