Information Governance is coming to the forefront as privacy become stricter in more and more jurisdictions. Clients are also inquiring about how their records are kept and demanding that firms put protections in place. In this podcast we will review the differences between Records Management and IG. We then delve into IG frameworks and policies and why you would want to establish these, followed by a look at client expectations. We will conclude with an overview of where to start when developing an IG framework and policy and the steps to take to put this in place.

Questions Ann will ask speaker:
1. What’s the difference between records management and information governance? 
2. What is an IG framework and associated policies and why would you want to establish these? (i.e. risk management, costs, etc.)
3. In terms of client expectations, what are clients concerned about and what do they want to see in terms of IG?
4. If a firm or corporation wanted to establish an information governance framework and policy, where would they start and what steps would they go through to get this in place?
