On November 30, 2016, from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m., the NYU Program on Corporate Compliance and Enforcement hosted Rashmi Airan, Richard Bistrong, and Walt Pavlo, for a discussion on the experiences that resulted in their own federal criminal convictions for white collar crimes, with additional insights from FBI SSA William McMurry.  The panel identified inflection points in law and business decision making and compliance processes where questions, interventions, knowledge or relationships could have helped them make better, more ethical decisions.
