Remarks as Prepared for Delivery
Good morning. Thank you for that warm welcome. It is a true pleasure to discuss the Justice Department’s corporate criminal enforcement work with such a knowledgeable, experienced, and international group of subject matter experts.
I am particularly pleased to speak at this International White Collar Crime Symposium. Back in 2019, I had the privilege to work with Andrew Levine, Jenna Dabbs, and the great staff at the New York City Bar Association, as well as the International Bar Association, to conceive of and launch this annual event.
Today, as I look out across the many faces in this historic room, I’m impressed by how the symposium has thrived under Jenna and Andrew’s leadership. Seeing so many talented practitioners from across the world here – in person – to commune and collaborate, I’m feeling a sorely needed sense of hope, not just for the future of our profession but for our world, which needs gatherings like these to bind us together, across international borders, and despite geopolitical conflicts. Thank you all for making the journey, for forging cross-border connections, and for contributing to increased international understanding.
In my remarks, I will focus on how today’s world demands that the Department of Justice expand, innovate, and modernize our corporate enforcement efforts to meet the moment, and how the private sector can also adapt to combat misconduct and promote compliance.
