Geo-political tensions and a U.S. administration focused on applying an active ‘whole of Government’ approach to security, supply chain, and market integrity issues are driving increased compliance risk for companies operating globally. The past year has seen a measurable uptick in regulatory and enforcement activities across the spectrum of issue areas, including Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (“FCPA”), sanctions, money laundering, anti-trust, human rights, environmental, and investment and trade controls, among others. Recently, senior U.S. Department of Justice ("DOJ") officials have described a package of enforcement initiatives intended to drive focus on corporate compliance.
Our panel of experienced global compliance investigators and advisors from
Foley Hoag and
Ankura Consulting, including former prosecutors, in-house investigations and compliance counsel, and third party compliance monitors and auditors, presented a free, CLE-eligible webinar that identified compliance enforcement trends, described what to expect, and discussed practical strategies for navigating this enhanced risk environment.
