Unseen Consequences: How Minor Regulatory Oversights Become Major Contentieux
In boardrooms and compliance departments, the most expensive surprises rarely start as headline events. They begin as “minor” oversights, a missing screening step, an outdated policy, a rushed onboarding, and then, weeks or months later, they surface as investigations, freezes, rejected payments, or sprawling disputes that drain time and credibility.
