Webinar workshop: Whistleblowing warts and all

As part of the ACGA 20th Annual Conference programme, conference participants will have exclusive access to the companion webinar workshop on 24 November 2021 at 5pm Hong Kong time on the topic of “Whistleblowing warts and all”.

Conference follow-up webinar workshop 1: Whistleblowing warts and all
Some of the biggest corporate frauds in modern history were triggered by whistleblowers: Enron, Worldcom, 1MDB, and Wirecard to name a few. Yet the personal stories of these insiders suggest there is still little upside for the whistleblower in shining a light on covert and illegal practices. During this session, we will look at different approaches markets are taking to protecting whistleblowers, both at the company level and through legislation. What are the risks of lifting the lid, and where are policies and laws coming up short? How can insiders be encouraged to report—and what can be done to mitigate the personal, career and even safety risks of doing so?
