Session Overview:

In the first standalone session of a multi-part series, Corporate Resolutions Inc. and Kirkland & Ellis LLP will present an informative and interactive program exploring the steps to take when allegations of wrongdoing -- such as embezzlement or fraud -- are made against an employee of your portfolio company.  If there are claims of corporate misconduct, you need to know how to address these allegations, what steps to take and what strategies to use.  This panel will address these issues and answer the questions:

•Do I have to investigate?
•Who should lead the investigation?
•Should an outside investigations firm be hired?
•What do I have to disclose to the public regulators and law enforcement?
•Do I have fiduciary responsibilities and exposure as an officer or director?
•How could this have been avoided?
