Information Governance is coming to the forefront as privacy become stricter in more and more jurisdictions. Clients are also inquiring about how their records are kept and demanding that firms put protections in place. In this podcast we will review the differences between Records Management and IG. We then delve into IG frameworks and policies and why you would want to establish these, followed by a look at client expectations. We will conclude with an overview of where to start when developing an IG framework and policy and the steps to take to put this in place.
