Leisure travel company Carnival Corporation has appointed Peter C. Anderson as its first-ever chief ethics and compliance officer.

Anderson has more than 20 years of experience in corporate compliance. Prior to the role, he was the head of the White Collar and Compliance Group at the Beveridge & Diamond PC law firm and was engaged by Carnival Corporation to conduct a compliance program assessment and lead the environmental compliance team on the Volkswagen monitorship.

In the newly created role, Anderson will lead the development of the company’s new compliance training programs for its 120,000 employees around the world and ensure the company’s adherence to legal statutory requirements and the highest ethical principles.

He is also expected to make significant contributions to the company’s compliance risk management program, including identifying potential risk areas in operations and implementing risk management plans.

“I am honored and privileged to serve in this important role, and look forward to continuing to work with our leaders, and, most importantly, our team of dedicated employees to help build an ethics and compliance program that is truly world class,” said Anderson.

“Our strategic plan involves goals and key actions to build a strong and proactive compliance culture that is based on open communications – both listening and responding – as well as adequate resources and improved tools.”

Arnold Donald, president and chief executive officer at Carnival Corporation, commended Anderson’s experience in corporate compliance.

“Pete understands what it takes to help build a corporate compliance effort that is effective, and will help lead us to pursue compliance-related goals through pragmatic solutions that achieve measurable results – another important step in our firm commitment to sustaining long-term environmental compliance, excellence and leadership,” said Donald.

“Pete’s knowledge of global environmental law and corporate compliance makes him a valued addition to our leadership team, and we look forward to him playing a strong role in helping us consistently achieve and exceed our compliance objectives.”
