Why Conflict of Interest Screening Matters
Undiscovered conflicts of interest can lead to compliance breaches, competitive disadvantages, and significant reputational damage. They affect business decisions, create loyalty conflicts, and pose legal risks. A structured and objective screening ensures that integrity, independence, and transparency are safeguarded within the company.
