The FCPA Compliance Report is the longest running podcast in compliance, premiering on July 31, 2015. This week begins a series of podcasts leading up to the 500th anniversary episode of the FCPA Compliance Report, which will post on Monday, August 31. Over the next five episodes, I will post podcasts of 5 top FCPA and compliance commentators. Over this week, I will be joined by Mike Volkov, Matt Kelly, Jonathan Armstrong, Jay Rosen and Jonathan Marks. Each will speak about the evolution of compliance from their own unique perspective. In this episode, I visit with Matt Kelly, founder of Radical Compliance. Kelly is a business journalist who was one of the first to gravitate to compliance. We take a look back at the evolution compliance over the past 10 years from the perspective of the 4th Estate.
Some of the highlights include:
- How compliance has moved into the mainstream of business news and the discussions about business.
- How social media has led to a more robust discussion about corporate ethics and democratized other people’s ability to hold companies accountable to ethical standards.
- The significance of the COSO 2013 Internal Controls Framework.
- Kelly sees FCPA enforcement as fundamentally different than corporate scandals which led to SOX and Dodd-Frank.
- The convergence of compliance & ethics and audit & risk management.
- The increased use of data in compliance as emphasized in the 2020 Update to the Evaluation of Corporate Compliance Program.
