Editor Kelly resigns at Compliance Week

Matt Kelly, the editor and publisher of Compliance Week, has resigned after 12 years with the publication.

Kelly writes, “This decision wasn’t easy, but it is something I had been considering for several months now. The end of 2015 will mark 10 years of me working at Compliance Week as editor, plus two years prior to that as a contributing writer. The staff here has done incredible things in that time, and I take great pride in the business we’ve built. I’ve been honored by their support, and their willingness to follow the path I thought we should take. So I want to leave on a high note, and take the memory of all those accomplishments with me.

“I’ve always felt that I had incredible luck to arrive at Compliance Week and work here when I did. My first steady assignment for the magazine, at the end of 2003, was simply to conduct Q&A interviews with corporate compliance officers.”
