EXECUTIVES WHO HAD THEIR SECRETARIES DO THEIR COMPLIANCE TRAINING IN THEIR PLACE RECEIVE A PROPER PUNISHMENT

You've gotta love those people at FINRA, the regulator for the securities industry. When a number of executives at Credit Suisse Securities had their secretaries do their required compliance training for them,  FINRA ruled that they had to give back a portion of their bonuses, as a penalty.  As we always say, let the punishment fit the crime. Imposing a financial penalty, individually, for failure to participate in compliance training, is just that.
