Why Compliance Management? In many financial markets, a formal compliance management system is not only recommended, but required by the regulatory community and by good corporate governance principles. Since recent news of financial misreporting by firm and institutions such as: Greece, Portugal, Spain, or like Enron, Worldcom, etc, the pressure on corporations to more transparently manage their compliance exposures is mounting. While some may observe that such regulatory requirements have not yet made their way to the Middle-East, it is clear that Middle-East enterprises operating globally must adhere to such guidelines. This program also represents an unrivalled opportunity for regional organizations to prepare themselves for the arrival of more rigorous regulatory environments.
