Episode 8 — Embed legal and regulatory compliance into governance, not after-the-fact (1A4)
This episode shows how to integrate legal and regulatory requirements into governance so compliance becomes part of decision-making rather than a last-minute scramble. You’ll cover how obligations translate into governance artifacts such as policies, standards, risk acceptance criteria, procurement clauses, control requirements, and reporting expectations. We’ll discuss how to build compliance checks into approval gates without creating unnecessary bureaucracy, using clear evidence requirements and defined accountability for compliance outcomes. You’ll also explore troubleshooting scenarios, like when a business sponsor wants to bypass controls for speed, or when a vendor contract conflicts with internal data handling rules. On the exam, the best answers typically strengthen governance by building compliance into the framework, ensuring traceability from requirement to control to evidence, and preventing repeat exceptions that undermine credibility.
