Podcast ǀ The Strategic Alliance of the CCO and CLO

You should devote an adequate amount of resources to stay on top of what's happening. Legal will see things emerging maybe through litigation or regulatory action or customer complaints that the compliance department may not be aware of, and vice versa. Compliance may see things emerging through surveillance reports, exceptional reports that legal isn't aware of yet. Being able to share things helps both departments to identify risks and get in front of them. – Michelle Oroschakoff, Board Chair, Focus Financial

If you're a lawyer on the legal team who's thought about going to compliance or you're in compliance and you're thinking about going to legal. I say, 'Go for it.' Find that opportunity and get that experience. – Kate Ring, Stash Financial
