ABOUT THE CONFERENCE

Commercial Banks, Investment Firms, and Insurance companies have unique regulatory requirements and processes that impact how they conduct internal investigations caused by regulatory inquiries, litigation, antitrust and whistleblowers. With the scope of these investigations often ranging beyond simply reviewing email and created user accounts, extending to enterprise applications for financial & HR information, file-shares, document management systems, collaboration tools, and structured databases for sales, marketing, trading and investments, the manner in which these internal investigations are conducted and the tools used requires a tremendous amount of technology and resources, which is where eDiscovery becomes an important asset.

Within the litigation setting, there is no more important tool at this time than eDiscovery; giving litigation teams and general counsel the ability to quickly and effectively search through thousands of pages of material in the click of a key. eDiscovery can, and is, used in a number of settings within the industry, and comes with its own tremendous set of challenges as companies grapple with the opportunity and cost of the changing methods of discovery.
