Last week, members of The Execu|Search Group’s Legal/Compliance team hosted a roundtable for general counsel and chief compliance officers. At the roundtable, compliance professionals from various lines of business came together to discuss how current industry trends and regulatory updates will impact their compliance programs.

Led by Melanie Marshak, a Managing Director within The Execu|Search Group’s Legal/Compliance specialty area, approximately 12 attendees from hedge funds and asset management firms discussed highlights of this month’s ACA spring conference as well as a number of key topics affecting the compliance hiring landscape. Attendees also got the opportunity to hear from special guest speaker Christopher Ray, a Senior Principal Consultant, who has over 15 years of industry experience and specializes in SEC compliance.

“These forums serve as great learning outlets for compliance professionals,” says Melanie. “Clients look forward to the small collegial environment as a way to collaboratively network and learn from like-minded professionals about the best ways to address key issues in their compliance programs.”
