Most chief compliance officers are focusing on risk around fraud and financial irregularities, followed by diversity and discrimination and health and safety issues, according to a recent poll.

The January 2020 Corporate Compliance & Ethics Report, developed in connection with the Consero Group’s biannual forum on compliance and ethics and produced in partnership with The Red Flag Group, showed more than one-third of participants rated fraud and financial issues as their No. 1 concern. Diversity and discrimination drew 17% and health, and safety had 10%. Other lower ranking choices included human rights, environmental regulations and money laundering.
