When allegations of economic crime surface, organisations are often judged before the facts are fully known, with legal, reputational, and regulatory risks escalating in parallel. General Counsel must make highstakes decisions under intense pressure, balancing disclosure obligations, board expectations, and external scrutiny in real time. With a cross-sector group of expert senior in-house leaders, this session explores how companies navigate these moments to contain risk, preserve credibility, and prevent allegations from
becoming full-scale crises.
