Set against the turbulent backdrop of economic hardship, Thomas Whiftord offers a detailed and apropos lecture on bank compliance testing.   Whitford identifies the three major contexts of testing – Enterprise Risk Management, Operational Risk, and Compliance Program Management, and provides comprehensive strategies for working within them.  Balancing the importance of establishing a clear testing plan with the still greater concern of how to measure the results, Whitford ‘s lecture equips attorneys with all the tools they need to ensure compliance within the market.  In Whitford’s words, compliance testing "is vital to protecting our financial system from risks that are both known, and those that are unknown.”   The program concludes with an informative Q & A from Lawline producer Meredith Ganzman.
