Chevron Challenge: Corporate Compliance in Changing Circumstances

Background

The Chevron ruling reduces judicial deference to regulatory agencies, requiring courts to play a more active role in interpreting ambiguous statutes. This change places greater responsibility on corporate boards to navigate regulations without relying as heavily on agency guidance, affecting how companies approach compliance and regulatory oversight.

Session Description

Join us as we collaborate with NACD Chicago for an exclusive virtual event that dives into the critical issues facing corporate boards in heavily regulated industries. 

We present a live panel discussion with expert litigator Tacy Flint of Sidley who has argued before the Supreme Court; a former Peoples Energy CEO from the heavily regulated utility industry Charles Matthews who now serves on boards such as BMO Financial; a former regulator and former leader of Protiviti's Global Regulatory Practice, senior managing director Carol Beaumier; and another seasoned board member in the regulated financial services industry of Ryan Specialty Group, with decades of experience as Aon and ADM General Counsel, Cam Findlay, our moderator. 

All panelists will be live together interacting in person at Sidley offices in Chicago, where Sidley production teams broadcast the discussion over Zoom Webinar. 

This event is designed to equip you with the knowledge and insights needed to navigate the complex landscape of regulatory compliance.

As a bonus, expect a few participants to interject audience questions, ensuring that the conversation is relevant and impactful.
