When: Thursday, April 9, 2009 at 2:00 p.m. EDT

As regulatory pressures continue to mount, managing compliance has become a tremendous challenge to many organizations. Compliance may be managed in silos throughout the organization, leading to inconsistencies, duplication of efforts, and at a higher cost to the organization. Effective compliance programs leverage a more practical, cross-regulatory approach to managing compliance that can alleviate increasing costs and complexity.

Join Michael Rasmussen, president of Corporate Integrity, Julian Parkin, Group Privacy Programme Director at Barclays and John Kelly, director at OpenPages as they discuss the importance and benefits of breaking down compliance silos as well as other topics including: 

  • Understanding how to improve your compliance program and how to approach it more strategically
  • How taking a cross-regulatory approach can lower your overall compliance costs
  • How Barclays has implemented a comprehensive privacy program across 60 jurisdictions world-wide
  • How Barclays is developing its privacy methodology and tools to align with existing risk and compliance activity across the Group
  • How other OpenPages customers manage and demonstrate compliance to internal and external stakeholders while improving efficiency and lowering costs
