The New Era of FCPA Enforcement: Key Trends And Possible Amendments
Program Number: 2227
Program Date: 03/29/2012
Description
The DOJ has declared that this is the “new era” of FCPA enforcement. The cost of settlement is spiraling upward, business organizations are conducting extensive and far-reaching investigations at great cost to win cooperation credit, and individuals are being targeted while longer and longer jail sentences are being demanded. Yet in court the DOJ seems to be faltering, and at the same time, business groups are demanding reform and Congress continues to hold hearings. Join Tom Gorman of Dorsey & Whitney LLP as he examines the trends behind this new era of FCPA enforcement in view of the repeated calls to amend the statute and the prospects for reform.
