What happens when two top compliance commentators get together? They talk compliance of course. Join Tom Fox and Kristy Grant-Hart in 2 Gurus Talk Compliance as they discuss the latest compliance issues in this week’s episode! In this episode, co-hosts Khristy Grant-Hart and Tom Fox tackle several high-profile compliance issues. They start with TD Bank’s $3 billion money laundering scandal, exploring how inadequate compliance measures and lack of investment enabled a decade-long operation involving $18.3 trillion in questionable transactions. The discussion critiques the penalties imposed on TD Bank and reflects on the broader industry implications. The hosts then shift focus to collateral damage from fentanyl, human trafficking, modern slavery, and terrorist financing, spotlighting the OCC’s novel restrictive actions and an SEC enforcement case involving Indian bribery schemes by Moog. Transitioning to corporate compliance dynamics, the podcast covers the Texas incident involving Deloitte’s mishandling of a convicted felon’s loan application, raising significant questions about due diligence. Frances Haugen’s advocacy for stronger whistleblower protections, particularly in the AI sector, gets highlighted. The episode concludes by addressing the legal ramifications of anti-boycott provisions, the complexities of election season in the workplace, and recent developments in the Boeing case, encapsulating these serious discussions with a humorous note on a bizarre Florida man incident.
