Summary
Abstract: Corporate compliance manages a diverse set of regulatory and reputational concerns ranging from fraud to privacy to discrimination. However, effectively managing such risks has often been hampered by a lack of adequate information about when, where, and why misconduct actually occurs. This chapter presents three case studies of corporate initiatives designed to improve measurement of potential compliance risks. These initiatives are designed to identify and respond to different organizational challenges and needs, but each applies an analytical approach. After discussing the cases, the chapter discusses the limitations and opportunities associated with compliance analytics.
