The Private Fund Compliance Operations Forum is a collaboration-first event for compliance professionals to benchmark their processes and bring new strategies back to their firm.
Across two days you’ll take a deep dive into vital strategies needed to meet the evolving non-legal and regulatory expectations for your role.
This Forum is essential for all compliance professionals to discuss how SEC rules are being applied, improve your firm’s practices, and ensure your firm is on pace with the rest of the industry.
Benchmark your back-office operations against peer organizations and learn how they are writing their AI, cyber, and data policies.
Improve your firm’s risk and data management, cybersecurity, tech solutions, LP relations and much more.
Expand your knowledge base of all things related to the SEC to help guide your firm forward.
