Compliance Officer's Handbook

Increasing regulatory developments and sanctions are making the role of those with compliance responsibility increasingly challenging. Declining public trust in corporations (due to accounting scandals), together with concern about risk and financial crime post-September 11th, has put compliance at the top of the corporate agenda. This new handbook for compliance practitioners, board members, managers and financial advisors provides straightforward and user-friendly guidance on best practice in the financial services industry. Commentary is illustrated with practical examples, case studies, diagrams and checklists where appropriate. Comprehensive but concise coverage of compliance matters makes this book the compliance practitioner's bible.
