The podcast currently has 3 episodes available.
The third episode explores the increasingly prominent topic of class actions. Which European jurisdictions are at the forefront? What innovative alternative models are there in other jurisdictions? London Senior Associate Jenny Reeves is joined by Sjef Janssen from our Amsterdam office to discuss class actions in the Netherlands, one of the jurisdictions leading the way in collective litigation, and Frankfurt colleague Max Sattler sheds a light on alternative claims models in Germany.
The second episode of the series explores the key role an organisation’s Compliance function plays in progressing Inclusion and Diversity, with reference to Part 1 in our Mind the Gap series. London Partner Yindi Gesinde discusses with Richard Davies, Senior Director of the International Litigation & Investigations Team at Gilead Sciences, how the Compliance function can enhance I&D efforts, through the creation of safe mechanisms and spaces for employees to speak up.
The first episode of the series follows Baker McKenzie's response to the UK Law Commission’s consultation on possible revisions to the law on corporate criminal liability.
That got us thinking about whether other jurisdictions have got it right. US Partners and former US Department of Justice prosecutors William Devaney and Tom Firestone discuss with UK Senior Associate Andrew Matheson the ins and outs of the US approach to prosecuting companies and, perhaps more importantly, how that approach could be improved upon.
