The award-winning Compliance into the Weeds is the only weekly podcast that takes a deep dive into a compliance-related topic, literally going into the weeds to more fully explore a subject. Looking for some hard-hitting insights on compliance? Look no further than Compliance into the Weeds! In this episode, Tom and Matt take a deep dive into the recent SEC enforcement action for pre-taliation against JPMorgan and what it means for whistleblower programs going forward. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has been ramping up fines for companies found guilty of retaliation, as evidenced by the recent JP Morgan securities case, which resulted in an $18 million sanction. This development underscores the importance of compliance and the need for companies to protect individuals’ rights to report misconduct. Tom views this as a significant shift, expanding the range of individuals who may be affected by retaliation claims. He predicts a broader legal discussion and increased protection for those who bring claims related to misconduct. Matt emphasizes the need for companies to be proactive in preventing retaliation. He points out that enforcement has been increasing since 2016 and that companies should already be aware that they cannot restrict employees from reporting wrongdoing to the SEC.
