Overview

The compliance function is expected to implement stringent controls to mitigate reputational and regulatory risks without impeding the growth of the business. Chief compliance officers now need to strike the perfect balance between being a business enabler and the protector-in-chief.
Anthony Dell, CCO of a publicly traded global alternative asset manager, applies strategic business principles to design, build, and execute scalable, efficient, integrated risk-intelligent functions and programs that are “run like a business” to enhance enterprise value.

Key Takeaways

• Can the compliance function be seen as an asset rather than a cost center?

• Managing the rising cost of compliance – both real and hidden

• Managing compliance talent, career progression, and skill shortage

• Putting it all together: running it like a business
