Broadcast Date: Thursday, February 04, 2021
from 11:00 am to 12:00 pm (ET)

Overview:

As threats of bribery and corrupt practices rise globally, emerging developments continue to have a major effect on the current legislation landscape. In the US, on July 3, 2020, the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) released the second edition of its resource guide for the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA). Notable updates and corrections included compliance initiatives and clarifications on its current provisions and policies. Furthermore, on August 14, 2020, the DOJ issued its first FCPA advisory opinion that sought to address issues on compliance with anti-bribery provisions. In France, the Parquet National Financier (PNF) continue to bring significant corruption enforcement proceedings under the new Sapin II legislation.  In the UK, the primary anti-corruption enforcement authority, the Serious Fraud Office (SFO) continues to bring significant enforcement proceedings against companies under the Bribery Act.  These proceedings have resulted in sizeable settlements under the UK’s sentencing framework.  Finally, in the Airbus global settlement on 31 January 2020, we saw how DOJ, SFO and PNF actively worked together to agree a multi-billion settlement.  Thus, lawyers and practitioners must proactively devise effective strategies to ensure compliance.

Listen as anti-bribery and corruption law experts Michael Huneke (Hughes Hubbard & Reed LLP) and Matthew Cowie (Dechert LLP) provide the audience with the latest updates and notable cases in anti-bribery and corruption legislation. Speakers, among other things, will offer helpful insights in carefully managing legal issues in light of the new regulations and enforcements.

In a LIVE Webcast, the speakers will discuss:

  • Global Anti-Bribery and Corruption Legislation: Trends and Developments
  • Anti-Bribery and Corruption Compliance Initiatives and Enforcement Trends
  • Risks and Challenges
  • Practical Tips and Strategies
  • Outlook

  • What practical considerations do companies face when enhancing their third-party due diligence process?
    • Overview of Legislative Developments (e.g., How France compares to UK and US; parallels in ESG and Human Rights)
    • Should or can the new standards be applied retroactively to existing relationships?
    • The Difference Between Objective Risk vs Objectively Weighing Subjective Risks
    • Whether or not, and when, to require interviews (and of whom)
    • Whether or not, and when, to require email review (and whether voluntary or forensic)
  • How can compliance professionals test the sufficiency of the data inputs into their due diligence processes?
    • Overview of Legislative Developments (e.g., French, UK, and US requirements regarding risk assessments, second-level controls)
    • How to design and implement risk-based risk assessments
    • Various options and the pros and cons of each (e.g., targeted verification visits; exhaustive ERM-style reviews, or in-between)
    • Remember to exercise existing rights to audit or otherwise review third parties.
  • How best to conduct due diligence for potential later use in internal or external investigative processes?
    • As more countries join the ranks of aggressive anti-corruption enforcers, it becomes more important--and more complicated--to anticipate potential future investigative requirements.
    • Will the review be privileged or not, and with what result?
    • Are there local legislative or other requirements for conducting interviews?
    • Where will the data be stored, and are you prepared to evaluate and respond to future data requests?
    • The shadow of litigation or arbitration.
