Background on Compliance
Corporate excesses and resulting legislation such as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act has spawned a new C-level executive in today's modern corporation -- the Corporate Compliance and Ethics Officer. The corporate compliance officer position is now found in almost every industry, in public and private companies, and in nonprofit organizations. Corporate compliance professionals and ethics and business conduct professionals generally are responsible for developing and overseeing corporate compliance and ethics programs to ensure their organization's compliance with laws and regulations governing their industry.
