Effective anti-fraud and anti-corruption programs – July 2016
David Doyle, chief compliance officer Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Anthony Campanelli, Partner, Deloitte Financial Advisory Services in the United States, and Kris Wentzel, Partner, Enterprise Risk Services, Deloitte Canada, discuss mitigating fraud risks and the importance of an effective whistleblower program.
