Whistleblowers: Best Practices in a New Regime

  • 2.8.2022 | 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM

Susan Muck

WilmerHale Partner Susan Muck will participate in a virtual discussion titled "Whistleblowers: Best Practices in a New Regime" on February 8, 2022.

More than $1 billion has now been awarded under the SEC's whistleblower program — and the Commission continues to announce record-setting awards. Companies need to get ahead of the new normal in light of the possibility that the SEC's current penalty posture signals a willingness to grant more awards, and that recent data and high-profile incidents show employees are more willing to submit tips.

Among other topics, this program will cover:

  • Basics of Whistleblower Policies
  • Whistleblower Rule Amendments
  • Latest Trends from the SEC
  • Cultivating a Compliant Corporate Culture
  • Nuts & Bolts of Handling Whistleblower Complaints
  • Whistleblower Complaint Documentation
  • Communication with the Board
  • Whistleblowers & ESG
