Why has the federal government decided not to pursue certain cases involving alleged corruption by U.S. companies overseas? What additional guidance might companies expect from the government this year or next? And how might these developments guide companies in crafting or updating their best practices in conducting business globally?
These are among the questions that will be addressed in this webinar, prompted by recent developments such as the U.S. Department of Justice’s (DOJ) issuance of a series of “declinations” explaining why it decided not to pursue charges against several companies for alleged violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA). These decisions provide much-needed explanations into what criteria the government uses in evaluating FCPA cases, criteria that can be translated into best practices.
Additionally, there have been rumors that in the coming months the DOJ will release long-awaited guidance that would explain its criteria in deciding whether or not to investigate a company.
Join us as we explore the DOJ’s explanations of its declinations in cases involving Morgan-Stanley, Oracle and others and how you can translate them into best practices for your compliance program. If your company does business worldwide, the insights shared on this program can help you avoid a costly DOJ investigation.
