Stevie Conlon, vice president, Tax and Regulatory Counsel for Wolters Kluwer’s Compliance Solutions business, has been selected as a winner in the 2020 Stevie Awards for Women in Business. She earned a Silver medal in the category “Female Executive of the Year, Business Services.”
The 2020 Women in Business Award accolade focuses on Conlon’s dual achievements as a leader in Wolters Kluwer’s Investment Compliance business, as well as its U.S. Regulatory Advisory Services group during a time of monumental disruption in the financial services industry due to the COVID pandemic. She is a nationally recognized expert on cost basis tax law, as well as the taxation of financial products and derivatives, and she has been quoted in top-tier news publications. Conlon has written extensively and presented at major industry conferences in recent years and, in 2020, on U.S. tax and other regulatory developments concerning virtual currencies and other digital assets that are important to banks and brokerage firms.
In particular, the expertise that Conlon and her team provided to Compliance Solutions’ lender customers as they helped small businesses across the nation navigate the complexities of the CARES Act’s Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) was cited as a key element of achievement in this year’s award recognition.
The Stevie Awards for Women in Business are open to all organizations worldwide and recognize the achievements of women executives, entrepreneurs, and the organizations they run. Program judges include respected executives, entrepreneurs, innovators, and business educators.
