This collaborative structure allows Ropes & Gray to deliver data-driven solutions leveraging AI and advanced analytics, providing clients with a holistic understanding of risk across their portfolios.
Amanda Raad, partner, co-leader of the Insights Lab, and co-head of the anti-corruption and international risk practice, emphasized the Lab’s deep integration within the firm.”The lab isn’t this standalone thing. We are part of the firm. We are fully integrated. We are working on matters in every practice group in every jurisdiction, in front of clients all over the world,” she explained in the article.
Further demonstrating Ropes & Gray’s commitment to this innovative approach, the Insights Lab welcomed Katie Daniels as director of ethics, compliance and insights this summer, solidifying the firm’s dedication to combining legal, behavioral, and data-driven insights.
