from Part 1 - The Compliance Industry, the State, and Measurement Needs
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 17 February 2022
Abstract: This chapter examines the different ways in which compliance programs of business organizations are used and measured by various legal and regulatory remedial regimes; nearly all have articulated the goals of compliance programs as prevention and detection of violations of laws and regulations, and nearly all measure compliance program processes and efforts toward these goals rather than results and achievements in the actual prevention and detection of violations. The chapter argues that in order to achieve consistencies between the stated goals and actual performance of the compliance programs, and to meet the public interest of prevention and detecting corporate violations of laws and regulations, a movement toward outcome-based measurement is necessary.
