Gain an in-depth understanding of the FCPA and learn how to develop compliance policies to prevent FCPA violations
Aggressive enforcement of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act continues to be a priority for the US Department of Justice and the US Securities and Exchange Commission. In the last year FCPA investigations have increased twenty percent, and several-hundred percent, over the course of the last five years. This trend, together with growing international cooperation, mounting penalties, and individual prosecutions, is certain to continue into 2010. Now more than ever, all companies, large and small, operating globally must design airtight FCPA compliance and training programs to protect themselves against FCPA violations.
Having an effective and comprehensive FCPA compliance policy in place will demonstrate to employees and, if necessary, law enforcement officials that your company considers anti-corruption compliance an important corporate goal. If done properly, a comprehensive compliance program can become a valuable corporate asset that enhances company operations, facilitates compliance and mitigates reputational and monetary damages when and if violations occur.
This highly rated American Conference Institute FCPA Boot Camp, Houston Edition, features a brand new agenda for 2010. It will provide you with comprehensive working knowledge of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and strategies you need to successfully implement and monitor an effective anti-corruption compliance program under the current enforcement environment. Topics will include:
- Developing effective anti-corruption training for employees and third-parties
- Testing your compliance program to identify weak spots
- Facilitating the reporting of suspected violations, handling complaints and applying discipline
- How international cooperation and prosecutions are changing the anti-corruption enforcement landscape
- The core elements of an internal FCPA compliance program
Throughout the course, you will have ample opportunity to ask questions and learn from and compare notes with your peers. Whether you are new to the area or just need a comprehensive refresher, this FCPA Boot Camp will provide you with the foundation you need to ensure your company’s FCPA compliance.
