THE COMPLIANCE SHUFFLE
Complying with one standard usually implies best practices for complying with others. "Not a day goes by that someone isn't asking for something," says Bernie Donnelly, VP of quality assurance at the Philadelphia Stock Exchange. From the Securities And Exchange Commission to his own internal audit team, Donnelly lives and breathes compliance.
To that end, Donnelly has learned to think strategically instead of tactically. When auditors requested additional checks and balances to the stock exchange's back-end batch-processing systems, Donnelly figured auditors would eventually make the same requests for its check ledgers.
"If you need it in one system, you'll need it in others," Donnelly says. "Rather than fixing piecemeal what's only being asked, look at the true cause of the problem. You get a better business practice as a side effect."
