“I developed a brand-new compliance program at a global business that was dusting itself off from foreign bribery resolutions, and yet I still felt like I didn’t and couldn’t do enough,” Michaela Ahlberg told the audience at Compliance Week’s “Financial Crimes Risks, Trends, and Proven Practices” virtual conference last week. 

Ahlberg created a compliance program from scratch when she was hired in 2013 by Swedish telecommunications firm Telia (then known as TeliaSonera) following allegations of corruption in its foreign business dealings.
