"[Compliance Risk is]...the risk of legal or regulatory sanctions, financial loss, or damage to an organization's reputation and franchise value; this type of risk may result when an organization fails to comply with the laws, regulations, or standards or codes of conduct that are applicable to its business activities and functions."
Susan Bies, (former) Governor, Federal Reserve Board.
