The Third Annual National Institute on the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act
October 21-22, 2010 Washington, DC |
|
Enforcement of anti-corruption laws in the United States and abroad is at an all time high. This program will provide a timely and substantive briefing on developments in this area of critical importance to companies, their officers and employees.
FCPA investigations and enforcement proceedings brought by the U.S. Department of Justice and the Securities and Exchange Commission continue to increase dramatically in number and severity for both U.S. and foreign persons. More resources are at the government's disposal, new investigative techniques are being utilized and significant incentives to report alleged misconduct to the government are now available as a result of recently enacted financial legislation awarding a bounty to whistleblowers. Individuals are prosecuted far more frequently than in prior years and corporate executives are becoming an increasing focus of the government's enforcement strategy. The advent of transnational bribery legislation in more and more countries and increased multinational cooperation has significantly increased the liability associated with business abroad. As a result, effective compliance programs, regular risk assessments, and careful due diligence have become vital to protect against violations.
This program will feature experienced government, corporate, and private practitioners who regularly deal with issues raised by the FCPA. It will provide valuable insights into enforcement initiatives and representation strategies, effective compliance practices including due diligence and management of anti-corruption business risks, conducting internal investigations, and dealing with the government's expectations.
