Compliance, Diligence and M&A: Part 3-Blinded by Familiarity, Avoiding Potential Reputational Issues

Welcome to a special five-part podcast series sponsored by K2 Integrity. This month we consider the intersection of compliance, diligence and mergers & acquisitions (M&A). I am joined by Hannah Coleman, Managing Director in K2 Integrity’s Investigations and Risk Advisory practice. She specializes in fast-moving, complex, and specialized research assignments in a variety of areas including investigative due diligence, corporate contests, intellectual property investigations, media transparency assessments, and litigation support. Also joining this week’s series is Tom Pannell, Managing Director in K2 Integrity’s Investigations and Risk Advisory practice. With a focus on financial investigations, Tom leads multi-disciplinary teams working with corporate clients and their legal advisors responding to crisis events, including multi-jurisdictional white-collar crime, misconduct, financial statement fraud, anti-bribery and corruption incidents, and compliance risk advisory work. In this third episode, I visit with Hannah on how to avoid being blinded by familiarity so that potential reputational issues do not surprise you down the road. 

Join us tomorrow as we consider deals through a global lens.
