The award-winning, Compliance into the Weeds is the only weekly podcast that takes a deep dive into a compliance-related topic, literally going into the weeds to explore a subject more fully. In this episode, Matt and I dive deep into a recent decision by the Delaware Court of Chancery in the McDonald’s case, creating a duty of oversight for corporate officers.
Some of the highlights include:
· Why can bad facts make bad laws?
· The sordid facts of David Fairhurst during his tenure at McDonald’s.
· The legal rationale.
· What is Caremark, and how did it influence this decision?
· What does it mean for CCOs?
· How does this decision intertwine with the Monaco Doctrine, CCO certification, and the new Corporate Enforcement Policy?
