This February sees the launch of the first inaugural "Show Your Compliance Team Some Love" award to provide a deep appreciation to people working in governance and compliance.

After an unprecedented period of uncertainty, it is important to make sure that people who went above and beyond their job description to make a difference in the past 12 months, get the recognition they deserve. As global cases of Covid-19 continue to rise, there is an unrivaled strain on businesses around the world. Managing compliance risks has become even more vital for organisations to survive through times of crisis. 

Evgeny Likhoded, CEO & Founder at Clausematch, commented: "Compliance professionals were hit hard with Covid pandemic. And their input is usually not appreciated enough within companies. The compliance function is usually perceived as a road-blocker.  Meanwhile, it is exactly compliance professionals who are actually protecting the company and enabling its growth."

Nominate one of your compliance colleagues or make a self-nomination to receive the Most Loved Compliance Professional of the Year Award. All entries must be received via the entry form by February 25, 2022. The judging panel will review and score the entries, compile a shortlist and pick a winner. A winner will be selected both from the EMEA and the North American region.
