Debevoise & Plimpton LLP litigation partner Andrew Levine served as editor of the fourth edition of Latin Lawyer’s “The Guide to Corporate Compliance.” In addition to writing the guide’s introduction, he and litigation counsel Erich Grosz contributed a chapter on “Assessing and Mitigating Compliance Risks in the Transactional Context.”

While focusing on examples from Latin America, the guide includes insights that have global relevance for compliance professionals, in-house counsel, private practitioners and others who must navigate the region’s complex and evolving laws and regulations. In particular, the book addresses Latin America’s compliance landscape, key considerations in building an effective compliance program, specific legislative and regulatory pressure points, and compliance trends to watch.

The guide is available to view as a PDF online or for purchase in hard copy here.
