Join us for an insightful discussion with key business leaders and experts on the critical role of the private sector in combatting corruption. While corruption is often thought of as problem for governments to confront, businesses must take actions to avoid reputational damage from money laundering and other illicit activities happening every day in their industries.

The results of a new public opinion survey by Angus Reid Institute on the prevalence of corruption in Canada will be launched at the event, and an action plan for the private sector will provide a unique perspective on how businesses can safeguard their operations and reputation.

Engage with industry peers and discover actionable strategies to mitigate corruption risks, ensuring your business thrives in an increasingly complex environment. Don’t miss this opportunity to lead the way in promoting ethical business practices in Canada and beyond.

Discussion topics will include:

  • How to Identify red flags of corruption and money laundering.
  • How to exercise increased due diligence on the source of customers’ wealth.
  • How to enhance your audit capacity and ensure board and director accountability.
