Dec. 5, 2017: Compliance with Foreign Corrupt Practices Act

The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act

What every company doing business abroad needs to know

The United States Department of Justice and Securities and Exchange Commission have devoted unprecedented resources to detecting and prosecuting violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA). These violations are resulting in substantial financial penalties and prison sentences for those involved. Companies of all sizes and their employees have been held liable even when they did not know about improper conduct by their agents and channel partners. Clearly, the FCPA raises many compliance concerns of which exporters need to be aware. In this 90 minute breakfast briefing, Edwin Broecker, a partner with Quarles & Brady, LLP whose practice focuses on the FCPA and related international anti-corruption laws, will provide practical guidance on how you can avoid FCPA problems.
