Legal Risk Management, Governance & Compliance - Interdisciplinary Case Studies from Leading Experts

Abstract

Charting key cases that have occurred internationally over the past two decades, the case-study companion-volume to Wild and Weinstein’s Guide to Best Practice provides the next level of critical analysis and legal commentary on the essential issues relevant to effective legal risk management, governance and compliance. Taking a cross-disciplinary approach, leading academics, business leaders, policy makers, practitioners and regulators analyse real-life cases, discuss responses to crisis situations across legal, political and economic levels, and the implications for regulation going forward, with recommendations based on lessons learned. Chapters cover legal knowledge management; international banking regulation, including US financial regulation; bribery; regulatory intervention; family wealth management; dispute resolution; IP risk management; cloud computing, cybersecurity and data governance; international investment in China; employment risk; legal services trends; systemic risk banking; and standards. This book will be of use to all those directly involved in, or concerned with, the management of legal risk in the commercial, government or third sector.
