No Comments on Great Women in Compliance – Insight from a Great Gentleman in Compliance with Andrew McBride

In today’s episode, Lisa speaks with a Great Gentleman in Compliance, Andrew McBride, the CEO and founder of Integrity Bridge.

Andrew shares his journey in compliance, from private practice to becoming Chief Compliance Officer at Albemarle to starting Integrity Bridge.

At Albemarle, Andrew built a new ethics and compliance program against the backdrop of an FCPA investigation. The work of Andrew and his team and their cooperation with the US Department of Justice led to a 45% penalty reduction decrease. The program was also awarded Compliance Week’s “Program of the Year” award.

He highlights the importance of having a multifunctional approach to building compliance programs, working closely with various departments such as sales, procurement, and finance. He also emphasizes how ethics and compliance teams are best positioned to succeed if they have different backgrounds and skill sets.

Andrew shares his experience building Integrity Bridge, a consultancy focused on helping companies design and implement holistic compliance programs to proactively use technology and address constantly evolving risks.

No Comments on Data Driven Compliance: The Journeys of Albemarle and ABB to Data-Driven Compliance, Part 2

Are you struggling to keep up with the ever-changing compliance programs in your business? Look no further than the award-winning Data-Driven Compliance podcast, hosted by Tom Fox. This podcast features an in-depth conversation around the uses of data and data analytics in compliance programs. Data-Driven Compliance is back with another exciting episode. In this special second part of a two-part podcast, I co-host with Vince Walden, CEO of KonaAI, to visit with our guests Andrew McBride, Chief Risk Officer at Albemarle, and Tapan Debnath, Head of Integrity, Regulatory Affairs, and Data Privacy—Process Automation at ABB, on their respective companies’ journeys to data-driven compliance.

Debnath’s perspective on the challenges and strategies in compliance data analytics is centered on the need for clear goals, defined processes, and the importance of early planning and resource allocation. He sees compliance data analytics as a journey rather than a project, encouraging organizations to start with imperfect data and refine their processes over time. On the other hand, McBride’s perspective is focused on prioritization, resource allocation, and audience-driven decision-making. He emphasizes the iterative nature of data analytics projects and believes that a successful ethics and compliance program does not necessarily require a large data analytics team, but rather the right roles and support from the IT function. Join Tom Fox and Vince Walden as they delve deeper into these insights with Tapan Debnath and Andrew McBride on this episode of Data-Driven Compliance.

Key Highlights:

Navigating Data Privacy Laws Across Jurisdictions
Strategic Steps in Ethics and Compliance Analytics
Unlocking AI’s Potential in Compliance Analytics
Actionable Insights from Data Analytics
Leveraging Documentation for Enhanced Compliance and Risk Mitigation
