Kelly expanded Compliance Week’s international coverage— recruiting expert writers in Japan, London and throughout the EU—and created numerous supplements on issues ranging from risk management to electronic discovery. Most recently, Kelly directed the publication of Compliance Week’s risk benchmarking reports, which tracked myriad risks—from restatements and internal control weaknesses to audit fees and enforcement and litigation—in nine major industries.

Prior to his role at Compliance Week, Kelly was a reporter and contributor on corporate compliance and technology issues for magazines such as Time, Boston Business Journal, eWeek, and numerous other publications.
