Welcome to From the Editor’s Desk, a podcast where co-hosts Tom Fox and Kyle Brasseur, EIC at Compliance Week unpack some of the top stories which have appeared in Compliance Week over the past month, look at top compliance stories upcoming for the next month, talk some sports and generally try to solve the world’s problems.

In this month’s episode, we look back at top stories in CW from November around the SEC enforcement statistics for the prior years, how CW will report and cover the FTX scandal and take a deep dive into the print edition which focused on tech and innovation in compliance and the creative use of the DOJ’s Evaluation of Corporate Compliance Programs and its Update by Home Depot to assess its own compliance program and remediate any gaps in a proactive manner. We previewed some of the stories CW will look at in December including several articles from the CW ‘Inside the Mind of the CCO’ survey which was concluded in October.

We conclude with a look at some of the top sports stories including a look at the NFL season as it moves into its final full month of regular season play, riff on the World Cup and the US win over Iran and ask if Tom Brady should have retired and stayed retired for the 2022 season.

Welcome to From the Editor’s Desk, a podcast where co-hosts Tom Fox and Kyle Brasseur, EIC at Compliance Week, unpack some of the top stories which have appeared in Compliance Week over the past month, look at top compliance stories upcoming for the next month, talk some sports and generally try to solve the world’s problems.

In this month’s episode, we look back at top stories in CW from August around the first CCPA enforcement action, the PCAOB deal with China on audits of Chinese companies listed on the NYSE, and potential bank fines for ephemeral messaging apps. We previewed some upcoming CW events, including the ESG virtual event, CW 2022 in Europe, which will be held in Scotland, and the virtual 3^rd Party Risk conference, scheduled for December.

We conclude with a look at some of the top sports stories, including a look at the Deshaun Watson resolution and debate whether it could have been handled any worse by the NFL and Browns; Tom Brady leaves the Bucs for 10 days during the preseason; and what does this mean for the regular season? Ichiro and what is greatness?
