Compliance into the Weeds is the only weekly podcast which takes a deep dive into a compliance related topic, literally going into the weeds to more fully explore a subject. Today we consider the Deutsche Bank Foreign Corrupt Practices Act resolution. We look at the compliance program; red flags missed, overlooked or avoided and internal control failures.
Some of the issues we consider are:
- The Bank’s compliance program was a paper program only.
- Where was compliance?
- What Red Flags were missed?
- Internal Audit did its job but was ignored.
- Actual Knowledge of corruption?
- What about the DFS?
