ACFE Sydney – 2018 Christmas Event

The important role of whistle-blowing

Thursday 6 December 2018
LIMITED SPOTS AVAILABLE

In the context of recent high profile examples of corporate wrongdoing in Australia and overseas (such as those highlighted by the Royal Commission into Misconduct in the Banking, Superannuation and Financial Services Industry)  there is heightened regulatory and community focus globally on the importance of corporate ‘Culture’  and increasing interest in, and attention upon,  the effectiveness of corporate whistle-blower programs to identify, detect and stop corporate misconduct.

This growing global recognition of the importance of the role of the whistle-blower (viewed as the ‘last line of defence’ for corporate wrongdoing) and shortcomings in whistle-blower protections is translating to law and policy reforms.

David McGowan
