Our annual review on all current subjects for compliance professionals (governance, anti-corruption, anti-trust, international sanctions, GDPR, and a new Digital and AI section with renowned speakers, as always).

One-time dinner-debate with the secretary general of Sonepar, the first company to have gone before the AFA’s Sanctions Commission.

A year after implementation of the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) regulation, it is time for an initial assessment. The CNIL (French Data Protection Authority), which assists actors and monitors proper application of the GDPR and the French Data Protection Act, has issued its first recommendations, but also its first sanctions decisions.
What conclusions can we draw from them? What were the first sanctions pronounced? What was the justification for the nature of the sanctions and the amounts of fines determined by the supervisory authority? The Simmons&Simmons team will provide us with its insight on the first months of the GDPR’s implementation and will share with us its feedback on the best practices to adopt and the pitfalls to be avoided.
We will also examine the GDPR’s impact in the work environment, notably with respect to new recruitment techniques and the development of remote work. Lastly, there will a specific focus on the issue of data security and management and notification of security breaches.

At that time, Laurent Charvériat, General Manager of ITracing, will provide an analysis of the processes to be implemented to prevent cyberattacks and to manage the consequences of IT system failures.

An overview of the major concepts related to AML, which in France is a benchmark for mapping risks and due diligence.

This training will be led by Dominique Dedieu (3DTic) and Karine Demonet (BPI France) and held on May 29 at 7 p.m., and will be followed by a cocktail with food.

Limited number of seats – Free invitation reserved for our members.

From the fundamentals to the most innovative practices, Le Cercle proposes a one-time event focused on three major areas:

1. Legal, strategic and reputational framework and stakes
2. Feedback and methodology 
3. Supply chain: pragmatic and innovative approaches

You have surely noticed that there are many current events related to international economic sanctions. To debate this subject that is very relevant for many French (and European) companies, Le Cercle De la Compliance is organizing a new meeting of its International Sanctions workshop on January 31. This time, it will be about examining the practical aspects of complying with international sanctions, including American sanctions, with a case study that will be presented by George Voloshin, the manager France of the investigations firm Aperio Intelligence. Among the issues addressed: How to carry out due diligence on third parties within the framework of sanctions? Why is the shareholder structure important? And final beneficiaries? “Specially designated national” versus sector sanctions: what impact do they have? How to prepare for the potential new sanctions in 2019? We will have a meeting with our members on January 31, 2019, beginning at 5:30 p.m.

The Sapin II Act was adopted on ______. Since then, the AFA has issued recommendations and published its questionnaire for preparing companies for a possible audit. Many audits have already taken place that have led to reports by the AFA. Cartography, management of third parties, codes of conduct, alerts, investigations, training, audits: Le Cercle de la Compliance’s workshops have provided to opportunity to discuss a large number of issues.

Today, the firm August & Debouzy proposes an overview of this act, obligations for our companies and their interpretations, with 18 months of hindsight and feedback. This training course is broken down into three sessions:

• Tuesday, November 13, 9-10:30 a.m. (welcoming at 8:30 a.m.)
• Friday, November 23, 9-10:30 a.m. (welcoming at 8:30 a.m.)
• Tuesday, December 18, 9-10:30 a.m. (welcoming at 8:30 a.m.)

In anticipation of the 2024 Summer Olympics, we are launching this first event of our Compliance 2024 initiative: a seminar on the rules to be respected so as not to cross the line with invitations to sporting events.

These unique times for bringing people together are not spared by sanctions. What are the rules to be respected within the framework of invitations to contacts or clients to sporting events?

We will make our analysis of these situations on solid bases.

Come hear the former compliance officer of a heavily sanctioned company within this framework and specialists on the issue.

Meeting on December 3 5:30-7:30 p.m.

Three sessions proposed by Ms. Sarah Bailey, Esq., and Ms. Frédérique Potin, Esq., of the firm Simmons & Simmons LLP, including a special “health data protection” session

The May 25, 2018 deadline for compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is now behind us. However, compliance requires daily monitoring, in all business sectors, in order to provide effective and efficient protection in the processing of personal data.

These two months of hindsight provide us with the opportunity to make an assessment of the compliance work that has been performed for the May 25, 2018 deadline, and of the recommendations issued by the European and French supervisory authorities.

The firm Simmons&Simmons proposes three breakfasts with a presentation of the following themes:

• Tuesday, October 2, 2018, , 9-10:30 a.m. : Lessons of the initial months of the GDPR’s implementation ? Best practices and advice for successfully complying with the GDPR.
• Tuesday, October 9, 2018,  9-10:30 a.m. : The amended French Data Protection Act, and its implementation decree : what are the obligations ? How does it work with the GDPR ? What are the CNIL’s recommendations ?
• Tuesday, October 16, 2018, 9-10:30 a.m. : a special “Health Data Protection” session and the specific requirements of the GDPR and French Data Protection Act for the processing of sensitive data
