    The Loyola Institute for Investor Protection is pleased to co-host, with the Institute for Law and Economic Policy, its seventh annual conference entitled *Corporate Ethics and Compliance in the Era of Re-Deregulation* on Friday, October 20, 2017. The nation's leading jurists, practitioners, business leaders, and scholars will assess the meaning of the new business environment while still emphasizing the market-driven benefits of ethical conduct and compliance, as well as the legal pitfalls facing firms that assume that the new environment means a more promiscuous operating context. In addition, speakers and panelists will discuss and debate whether allowing a more relaxed approach to ethics and compliance issues will lead to large losses in shareholder wealth, reputational damage, regulatory fines, terminations, and lawsuits. The role of disclosure under the federal securities laws in terms of material breaches of ethical and legal norms will also be considered.
