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.
