The Growing Influence of the GC in Overcoming Compliance Challenges
Compliance and legal challenges are converging, offering opportunity for general counsel to play a more strategic role across the enterprise, reports a new white paper from Mitratech.
The report is titled “At the Intersection of Legal and Compliance: The Opportunity for General Counsel to Meet Increasingly Complex Compliance Requirements and Lower Business Risk.”
As compliance demands expand in both quantity and financial impact, compliance and regulatory issues are at the forefront as a top priority for general counsel, although the role that they play in this function is still evolving, Mitratech says.
“There is a clear opportunity for General Counsel to embrace their role as a change agent within the enterprise and to take a leadership position at the intersection of legal and compliance challenges,” said Martin Goulet, Mitratech’s Senior Product Manager for Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) solutions.
