It’s been 15 years since the Dodd-Frank Act reshaped financial regulation in the aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis. Among its most impactful legacies are its whistleblower protections. Joining us to explore this topic is Dave Jochnowitz, a Partner at Outten & Golden and the Co-Chair of the firm’s Whistleblower and Retaliation Practice group. He is a frequent writer, speaker, and contributor to the Whistleblower community. During this conversation, we trace the evolution of whistleblower laws from early protections to the False Claims Act, the Dodd-Frank SCC Whistleblower program, and examine how legal safeguards have expanded and been challenged over time. We also discuss what the future may hold for whistleblowers under this administration’s shifting political priorities. Join us as we dissect the history, current realities, and future of whistleblowing and retaliation, with a focus on how those who speak up continue to be protected.
