The Compliance Officer’s Forum, 29 – 30 October 2025, Düsseldorf, Germany
The Compliance Officer's Forum, 29 - 30 October 2025, Düsseldorf, Germany
When there is so much noise that it gets difficult to hear then you need to fine tune the voices you are listening to.

People often ask me what the forum is all about and I often reply, ”I’m not too sure, you see, we meet, in a room, around fifty of us and Manuela or Andre or Sam, it could be anyone in the room really, will go to the front and visually backed up by a few slides will get us all talking about something, something that’s probably been uppermost in everyone’s mind lately when focused on the job .”
This is a room of senior and leading compliance executives, who will meet in Dusseldorf this October to engage, share knowledge and benchmark in an open, intimate and candid atmosphere in a designed room set up with armchairs and sofas. Not a ‘normal conference’ this is open and clear talking, often an exchange of views, an intense two days designed so senior compliance executives have a place to share ideas, learn new ones and generally join in the discussion in a relaxed yet dynamic setting.
It is only fifty of us though, it’s kept at this number so we all get to meet and know each other, it works brilliantly, see you there.
Please contact your NielsonSmith representative to discuss the programme in more depth.
