Who Ya Gonna Call When a Compliance Officer Needs Help?

In this episode, CSS’s team of former Chief Compliance Officers Korrine Kohm and Victoria Olson sit down to discuss why outsourcing compliance no longer has a negative connotation. As a CCO takes on more responsibilities, from cybersecurity threats to business continuity plans, new regulations, changes in business strategy and more, imagine the benefits of having supplemental resources to complement an existing compliance program. Outsourcing individual tasks enables compliance teams to be more strategic and scale for future growth.
