Mayer Brown’s "Investigations Lifecycle Insights" series provides guidance and tips on the mechanics of both internal and external (or regulator-led) investigations in the context of financial services. Covering the period from the time allegations are first made and an investigation is launched, through to its conclusion, and remediation post-investigation, each episode in the series covers a different stage or process within a typical "life cycle" of an investigation, and discusses overarching global themes in investigations from different jurisdictional standpoints.
