Clifford Chance (CC) has teamed up with Thomson Reuters to launch an e-learning programme focusing on competition, antitrust, anti-corruption and anti-bribery.

The joint initiative has seen the magic circle firm and the information provider work together to draw up online courses for financial services firms and corporates, which can be monitored on a real-time basis by HR and compliance staff.

The online offering aims to help businesses cuts costs and time associated with training, as well as reduce the risk of unexpected expenses when regulators find gaps in compliance strategies.
