    Event Synopsis:
    Since its enactment, the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) has been a major catalyst behind anti-corruption investigations and enforcement actions around the world. With its intensive scrutiny, it is crucial for companies to have sound anti-corruption programs that will detect and minimize violations of law and common anti-corruption risks. However, mitigating these challenges can be an arduous way up to secure a full-fledged compliance program.

    In a two-hour LIVE Webcast, listen as an authoritative panel of key thought leaders and professionals assembled by The Knowledge Group gives an in-depth discussion of the complex landscape of criminal and civil laws enacted to combat transnational bribery. Speakers will also provide an overview of the FCPA and other international anti-corruption initiatives and will offer a roadmap in benchmarking an internal compliance program that will follow an increasingly global framework of anti-corruption statutes.

    Key topics include:
    • FCPA: Current Trends
    • Anti-Bribery and Accounting Provisions
    • Common Anti-Corruption Risks
    • Mitigating Anti-Bribery Risks
    • Key Considerations in Corruption Risk Assessments
