Re-energize your spirits by sharing time with like-minded Chief Compliance Officers

Perhaps some chief compliance officers and financial-industry governance professionals are among my friends. But whoever decided to spam me from the Regulatory Compliance Association did a poor job of list selection.

I’m sure that they’re wonderful people, but folks who attend “The Annual Asset Management Thought Leadership Summit: Litigation, Risk Management and Regulatory Reform – An Industry in Transition” aren’t “like-minded.” At least, not if that means belonging to the same profession as yours truly.
