The American Law Institute鈥檚 New Principles on Organizational Compliance
About the Program
樱桃视频 is committed to providing a forum for the discussion of important and sometimes controversial legal and social issues.
Last year, the American Law Institute (ALI) released its . This project offers best practices in compliance for public and private organizations with the main emphasis on compliance for large, publicly traded corporations. The Principles constitute the first major U.S. legal code of compliance in nearly 30 years for a legal field that has grown exponentially in importance in that time. The drafters of the Principles drew upon years of compliance experience, other compliance codes, laws, regulations, and court decisions mandating compliance programs, and an explosion of scholarship on compliance, academic and practice-focused. Thus, the Principles both summarize and advance the richly developed compliance field whose goal is to assist organizations in enforcing on themselves both externally and internally imposed obligations.
This conference is the first of several conferences devoted to the Principles. It reunites the four reporters on the project: the main reporter who proposed the project to the ALI, together with , , and who were associate reporters. The conference will have scholars who specialize in compliance and related fields examine one of the four major substantive chapters of the Principles鈥攇overnance, compliance risk management, compliance, enforcement鈥攁nd offer their views about it, pointing to its usefulness, contributions, and issues. The drafters will provide in response their own perspective on the goals of a chapter and insights about its drafting outcomes. The goal is to have conference participants and the audience engage in wide-ranging conversations on the Principles. Essays based on contributions to the conference will be published in a special issue of the Brooklyn Journal of Corporate, Financial & Commercial Law.
