Preventing and mitigating conflicts of interest (COI) is a mainstay of many corporate compliance and ethics (C&E) programs. And because there is no all-embracing COI legal regime (the way there is for, e.g., antitrust), particular attention should be paid to drafting and enforcing COI provisions of codes of conduct. In a prior posting we explored standards of waiver in codes for COIs. SeeStandards for waivers of conflicts of interest - Compliance and Ethics: Ideas & Answers.
