Rapidly evolving geopolitical and geo-economic risks are leading to the evolution of national security teams in a wide range of companies and corporate advisors. For compliance managers with the optimum skills and experience, they provide an interesting and important career opportunity.
These emerging teams sometimes begin as a separate group or specialism within the compliance function. However, they usually involve close collaboration with, and coordination between, multiple functions including cybersecurity, legal and risk management. Some originate elsewhere, such as in a General Counsel or legal team.
