11. Every firm has a (general) culture, which drives
• The way power flows
• The way people, especially management, communicate
• The risk appetite
• The way things are done
• The energy (and resource) levels applied
Cultures are pervasive, and exist across the firm
Shaping your firm’s Compliance
culture and its compliance

Otto Bruderer, a managing partner of
the bank, told a New York court:
"Wegelin was aware that this conduct
was wrong… From about 2002 through
to about 2010, Wegelin agreed with
certain US taxpayers to evade the US tax
obligations of these US taxpayer clients,
who filed false tax returns with the IRS.”

18. Is it possible to measure the Integrity and Ethics of an
individual, or even of an organisation?
In April 2013, the CISI became the first professional
body to require candidates taking customer facing entry
level examinations for wholesale/capital markets
financial services activities to pass an integrity test.
Wholesale/capital markets practitioners in the UK now
need to complete IntegrityMatters test, and pass with
an A or B grade, prior to taking their CISI exams
22. Training should take the form of a risk based
approach.
- who?
- what?
- where?
- why?
- how?
Should everyone be doing the same training?
23. 70:20:10
70% on the job tasks, experiences and problem solving
10% structured training
20% feedback, working around problems relating to need
There are some limitations to this model; measurements,
record keeping, suitability, career exposure, previous training,
to name but a few.
25. Key Compliance Framework Issues
• Ultimate responsibility for compliance rests with
senior management
• The compliance function is developed and used
by senior management as a critical tool,
complementing other key risk management
functions such as internal audit
• The compliance function is independent but
sufficiently close to business operations to be
effective
26. Key Compliance Framework Issues
• The compliance function is instrumental in
embedding a strong compliance culture
throughout the organisation
• The compliance function ensures ongoing
compliance with regulatory requirements or at
least is capable of timely remedial action

It’s official: establishing a culture of compliance in the
workplace – and communicating it clearly – can help you
earn a get out-of-jail card in the courtroom.
28. • There is no ‘one size fits all’ solution
• Firms need to assess what they need, and how
best to achieve this
• This can vary to a large extent from one
location to another
• What is best for your competitor may not be
best for you
• There is no perfect answer!

In investigating the case, the DOJ found that Morgan Stanley maintained significant internal controls designed to prevent such corruption, including monitoring transactions, conducting random audits, and exercising due diligence with new business partners. The policies were updated regularly and employees were trained in FCPA compliance. Records showed that Morgan Stanley trained Peterson on the FCPA seven times during the time frame of the fraud and reminded him of FCPA rules 35 times.
