Webinars Round table session: How AI is emerging in business, and its effects on ethics and compliance programmes

Ethics and compliance are developing at its fastest pace in at least a decade. From a flurry of new sanctions requirements to the emergent risks surrounding exciting new technologies like AI. Legal and compliance teams are having to keep pace. But how?

Join our round table session on the 5th of March in Central London, where more than 25 chief compliance officers and legal counsels will be sharing experiences under the Chatham House Rule on two key challenges:

  • Major challenges in sanctions compliance: the transformation that has taken place in recent years, plus ‘horizon scanning’ on what to expect next.
  • How AI is emerging in business, and its effects on ethics and compliance programmes: we’ll be discussing how we might use AI better, plus the risks that GCs and CCOs should bear in mind as developments gather pace.
