Political Engagement Under Scrutiny: Managing Legal and Reputational Risk Through Internal Investigations

On April 16, Skadden hosted the webinar “Political Engagement Under Scrutiny: Managing Legal and Reputational Risk Through Internal Investigations.” Speakers included political law compliance and investigations head Ki Hong and white collar defense and investigations partner Mayra Suárez. Mr. Hong and Ms. Suárez explored how organizations can proactively prepare for potential inquiries, including navigating political engagement issues and the associated legal risks; designing and conducting internal investigations; tailoring investigative approaches based on industry regulation, potential violations and practical constraints; and using internal investigation findings to mitigate enforcement actions and reputational harm.
