Global Investigations Review will host its 2023 GIR Live Spring Conference in Washington DC.

Questions that the panel is expected to answer include:
- Does the new policy allow for recognition of accidentally breaking the law vs bad intent?
- How does the new policy impact the way internal investigations are conducted?
- How will changes to individual accountability affect companies’ business?
- How will this change how private lawyers advise their clients?
- Will this speed up individual prosecution or slow down corporate resolutions?
