11.00-12.15 | Purpose, Inclusion, Sustainability, Integrity - Current Developments In One Integrated Governance & Compliance Approach Robust governce structures in organizations (including enterprises), have currently become more important than ever. In times of crisis, it is essential that organizations implement efficient solutions to protect themselves (resilience), their members and stakeholder (inclusion) as well as the whole societies from risks. On the other hand, they must pursue their purpose in a way that preserves the interests of future generations (sustainability) and protects the environment. This is why the circular economy is so important, especially with regard to the last aspect. But how can current governance trends, which undoubtedly include these, be pursued in an integrated approach? Prof. Dr. Victoria Hurth Jan Schreiner Sigridur Thormodsdottir Rajeev Thykatt Panel Chair: Axel Kravatzky | |
| 12.15-12.30 | Coffee Break | |
12.30-13.30 | Bringing Compliance Management to Another Level - Effectiveness through Standardization Compliance management is one of the management systems that has developed significantly in recent years. Not only have various economic scandals contributed to this, but also legislators who have codified incentive systems for the implementation of CMS in many countries of the world. Companies and their leaders have understood that investing in compliance always pays off. But for a CMS to be able to protect companies and to be officially recognized, it must be effective. But how can the effectiveness of CMS be measured? What role do standardized solutions play in this? How do we take CMS to a higher level? Dr. Peter Jonas Andreas Frank Slawomir Chmielewski Carolina Muñoz Panel Chair: Susanne Friedrich | |
| 13.30-14.15 | Lunch Break | |
14.15-15.30 | ESG - Disclose or die! Modern Approaches and Challenges in Non-Financial Reporting It is true that in many countries of the world there are still different standards with regard to the design and requirements of governance (G). Different weighting is also given to social (S) and environmental (E) issues. However, there is a general tendency to indirectly encourage companies to comply with their new ESG obligations by openly reporting on their efforts in this regard. At the same time, this clearly promotes transparency also in regards to non-financial reporting in the area of anti-corruption and other compliance issues. But how should such reports be designed? What is the benefit of global standardization? What challenges already exist? Prof. Dr. Sonja Wüstemann Prof. Dr. Claus Köhler Alain Casanovas Ysla Daniel Lucien Bühr Panel Chair: Carolynn Chalmers | |
| 15.30-15.45 | Break | |
15.45-17.00 | Two Sides of the Same Coin: Whistleblowing and Internal Investigations within an Integrated Approach No functioning compliance system and thus no governance is conceivable without a whistleblower system. Whistleblowing is the most important source not only for potencial and actual violations, but also provides insights into the state of the corporate culture and the existing structures and processes. While whistleblowing is all about protecting whistleblowers and creating robust reporting channels, it is imperative that such systems be supplemented with robust solutions for evaluating reports and conducting internal investigations when necessary. How can standards contribute to this? What are the key challenges today and how can they be overcome? Christian Miege Andrew Samuels Dean Newlan Min Cai Panel Chair: Anna-Maija Mertens | |
