In this episode, Ryan McConnell (a former federal prosecutor and founder of the boutique Houston law firm R. McConnell Group) responds to the following questions regarding the DOJ’s April release of a policy document titled “Evaluation of Corporate Compliance Programs:” (i) whether the business community deserves more stability rather than ever-changing DOJ guidance; (ii) how the recent guidance is not really an update, but more of a consolidation” of prior guidance and thus generally a yawner; (iii) why the word “effective” is so prominently mentioned in the guidance; and (iv) how business organization compliance with the guidance should be measured.
