Reviews

Back in big law, an experienced client has at last written a thorough and insightful book - Legal and Compliance Risk. For many years, its author, Peter Kurer, was general counsel at UBS. Later, he was chairman of the global bank. He knows his opinions. In a work packed with theory and practical tools, the focus is on risks that flow from legal failures and compliance breaches. These risks are subjects on which in-house lawyers readily opine in op eds, blogs and at conferences. It is refreshing now to have a fully developed and authoritative text. Richard Susskind, The Times
