The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act - Part One - FCPA Basics
The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) is a U.S. federal statute which dramatically affects commercial enterprises conducting business overseas. As one of the most far-reaching laws regarding international public corruption, the FCPA presents significant compliance challenges for companies operating abroad and substantial enforcement risks.
This webcast is Part One of a six-part series on the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, and covers the basics of FCPA. Topics addressed include an initial overview of the Act, i.e., its anti-bribery requirements and accounting provisions. The program then discusses particular issues faced by companies as they seek to comply with the FCPA. Finally, the panel analyzes recent enforcement actions and their compliance implications.
Join Federal Publications Seminars and a distinguished panel of attorneys from Steptoe & Johnson LLP as we present The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, Part I - FCPA Basics.
