Bringing Compliance into the Boardroom  

Global trade transactions account for trillions upon trillions of dollars each year, and this number is expanding as we forge into the future. Additionally, it is becoming more complex to manage US and international regulations. Yet, despite these factors, compliance departments remain woefully underfunded and understaffed. How do you get executive level cooperation and sponsorship of your initiatives?

In this webinar, our expert panelists will discuss:

• The pain points of each member in the boardroom and how they relate to compliance issues
• Key messaging to use when speaking to each board member
• Tools to use in your presentation, such as quantifying compliance and its effect on the bottom line
• How automation can contribute to your efforts by adding value and saving money
