Wars Cool for Fund CCOs, Says Lord
 Michael
Lord was recently quoted in the Compliance Reporter about
how CCOs and compliance staff are increasingly considering
factors other than salaries when changing jobs. He commented
on
one recent lateral move where a VP of compliance accepted
an offer for a $5,000 pay hike because "the new fund
offered more lucrative growth opportunities."
