Summary: The Covid-19 pandemic has had an inevitable impact on operational challenges for businesses, including commonly covered issues such as technical limitations and maintaining business continuity. But there has also been a significant spike in compliance issues which have arisen due to the shift to remote or agile working globally, which could have equally serious ramifications for businesses if not managed effectively. Such risks include maintaining confidentiality, technology risks, mitigating material breaches, and anti-bribery and corruption – to name a few.
