Podcasts about anti bribery

Our episode today focuses on anti-corruption messaging: what messaging has looked like in the past, the challenges and risks it poses, and novel approaches that could yield better results. Holly Sandalow, Program Officer at CIPE's Anti-Corruption & Governance Center, sits down with Caryn Peiffer, Associate Professor in International Public Policy and Governance at the University of Bristol, and Nic Cheeseman, Professor of Democracy at the University of Birmingham, who have authored the new How-to Guide to Anti-Corruption Messaging in partnership with CIPE and with support from the National Democratic Institute. Anti-corruption campaigns have been a staple of both foreign aid programming and civil society over the last 30 years, and there is often an element of awareness-raising that involves producing messages about the harm that corruption can do. There is growing concern, however, that anti-corruption messages may be ineffective—or even do more harm than good—in part because they are not being tailored, targeted and tested to make sure they have the desired effect. Drawing upon their own research and studies by fellow academics about the impacts & efficacy of anti-corruption messaging, Peiffer and Cheeseman discuss the risks of deploying messages that have not been rigorously tailored, targeted, and tested. Listen in to hear what ideas they have for crafting more effective messaging campaigns.

This week on Bribe, Swindle, or Steal, we listen in on the lively presentation at the 2024 TRACE Forum featuring former enforcement officials, Charles Duross, Partner, Morrison Foerster, David Last, Partner, Cleary Gottlieb, and Mark Mendelsohn, Partner, Paul Weiss. Speaking with TRACE President, Alexandra Wrage, Chuck, David, and Mark discuss their time as Chiefs of the FCPA Unit and their experiences navigating heightened scrutiny and shifting resources, and then they offer their perspectives on what lies ahead.

By Adam Turteltaub The FCPA sure isn't what it used to be, or is it? While the headline grabbing Foreign Corrupt Practices Act cases are much less frequent than they once were, there is still substantial risk both for individuals and companies, as recent dispositions have shown. To understand where things are we sat down with Markus Funk, partner at Perkins Coie and author of the chapter “Anti-Bribery and Corruption Compliance Programs” in The Complete Compliance and Ethics Manual 2024. He explains that just because there aren't cases in the news, doesn't mean all is quiet. There may remain a steady stream of companies self-reporting violations and reaching less-formal agreements with the DOJ. Whatever the trend may be, third parties remain the greatest risk, and the prescription stays the same. You need to know who the third party is and hire them for the right reason: their expertise and track record for success in the right way. Hiring a government official's cousin to help get the deal remains a very bad idea. Another bad idea:  assuming your people are not a risk area. They are. Be sure to be sensitive to internal risks. Train the workforce and work with the finance team to help them serve as an extra sets of eyes when it comes to spotting misconduct. Above all, stay alert and be prepared to investigate possible incidents. Prosecutors still expect companies to bear the brunt of the investigative burden.  

Today's episode of All Things Investigations is a deep dive into the 2023 FCPA Alert with Tom Fox, Laura Perkins, and Kevin Abikoff from Hughes Hubbard and Reed. They unravel the complexities of the latest updates in anti-corruption laws, focusing on the impact these changes have on companies in the U.S. and abroad. They share a detailed analysis of the current anti-corruption enforcement landscape practical advice for navigating these legal waters, and how we can draw inspiration from a rock and roll great. Laura Perkins and Kevin Abikoff, from Hughes Hubbard's Anti-Corruption and Internal Investigations Practice Group, join Tom Fox in this episode. Laura Perkins is the former Assistant Chief for FCPA enforcement at the DOJ, and Kevin Abikoff is a prominent attorney specializing in compliance, anti-corruption law, and internal investigations. Their combined insights provide a unique perspective on the challenges and strategies in compliance and anti-corruption, crucial for businesses operating globally. In this episode, you'll hear Tom, Laura, and Kevin discuss: Why the FCPA Alerts from Hughes, Hubbard, and Reed always start with a quote from a popular artist – this year's from Jimmy Buffet: “Go fast enough to get there but slow enough to see.” The guidance that was originally issued in 2021 has evolved as the Department of Justice gains experience with the policies and how they want companies to follow them.  Empowering compliance officers who are on the front lines of protecting companies and shareholders, and how doing so is ultimately good for business. What it can mean for companies to self-report to the DOJ and whether or not all of the implications have been considered. For years, the DOJ has been talking about compliance incentives, repercussions, and compensation, and this year, they have taken it a step further by allowing companies to benefit via reductions in fines based on their efforts to bring repercussions to individuals involved in misconduct. Company boards are obliged to exercise business judgment, which includes taking into account financial repercussions or pursuing bad actors. The new guidance may open the floodgates for private plaintiffs to sue boards that do not. Lessons learned from specific enforcement actions from DPA's, NPA's, and Declinations, specifically the Ericsson and ABB resolution.  The scope of anti-bribery and anti-corruption enforcement outside of the US, looking at France, Brazil, and China. A growing number of countries are entering the sphere of FCPA enforcement actions in the US and elsewhere.

After the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the world of business will never be the same again. Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco recently said that the world's “geopolitical landscape is more challenging and complex than ever.

Regulators around the world are increasingly warning against the danger of a check-the-box compliance program and encouraging companies to evaluate their respective cultures and the corresponding impact on compliance.

In this podcast, litigation & enforcement attorneys Amanda Raad and Tina Yu sit down with Richard Bistrong, CEO of Front-Line Anti-Bribery LLC, to discuss his journey from being prosecuted by U.S. and UK authorities for bribery violations to becoming an outspoken proponent of using a behavioral sciences approach to compliance.

Under the Evaluation of Corporate Compliance Programs, Prong 2, it states: Senior and Middle Management Conduct at the Top – How have senior leaders, through their words and actions, encouraged or discouraged the type of misconduct in question? What concrete actions have they taken to demonstrate leadership in the company’s compliance and remediation efforts? How does the company monitor its senior leadership’s behavior? How has senior leadership modelled proper behavior to subordinates? This requirement is more than simply the ubiquitous ‘tone-at-the-top’ as here the Justice Department wants to see a company’s senior leadership actually doing compliance. How can senior management operationalize compliance going forward? One of the best places to start is the article from the Harvard Business Review by Professor Lynn Paine entitled, “Managing for Organizational Integrity”. Larry Thompson, former PepsiCo Senior Vice President of Governmental Affairs, General Counsel and Secretary, discussed the work of Professor Paine in citing five factors, which he believed were critical in establishing an effective integrity program and to set the right “Tone at the Top”. The guiding values of a company must make sense and be clearly communicated. The company’s leader must be personally committed and willing to take action on the values. A company’s systems and structures must support its guiding principles. A company’s values must be integrated into normal channels of management decision-making and reflected in the company’s critical decisions. Managers must be empowered to make ethically sound decisions on a day-to-day basis. David Lawler, in his book, Frequently Asked Questions in Anti-Bribery and Corruption  boiled it down as follows “Whatever the size, structure or market of a commercial organization, top-level management’s commitment to bribery prevention is likely to include communication of the organization’s anti-bribery stance and appropriate degree of involvement in developing bribery prevention procedures.” Lawler went on to provide a short list of points that he suggests senior management engage in to communicate the type of tone to follow an anti-corruption regime.” I had a CEO of a client, who after I described his role in operationalizing his company’s compliance program observed the following, “You want me to be the ambassador for compliance.” I immediately averred in the affirmative. The following is a list of things that a CEO can do as an ‘Ambassador of Compliance’ Reject a ‘do as I say, not as I do’ mentality; Not just ‘talk-the-talk’ but ‘walk-the-walk’ of compliance; Oversee creation of a written statement of a zero tolerance towards bribery and corruption; Appoint and fully resource, with money and headcount, a Chief Compliance Officer; Oversee the development of a Code of Conduct and written compliance program implementing it; Ensure there are compliance metrics on all key business reports; Provide leadership to middle managers to facilitate filtering of the zero tolerance message down throughout the organization; Not only have a whistleblowing, reporting or speak up channel but celebrate it; Keep talking about doing the right thing; Make sure that you are seen providing your Chief Compliance Officer with access to yourself and the Board of Directors. Coming at it from a different perspective, author Martin Biegelman provides some concrete examples in his book entitled, “Building a World Class Compliance Program – Best Practices and Strategies for Success”. Biegelman begins the chapter discussed in this posting with the statement “The road to compliance starts at the top.” There is probably no dispute that a company takes on the tone of its top management. In this chapter Biegelman cites to a list used by Joe Murphy of actions that a CEO can demonstrate to set the requisite tone from the Captain’s Chair of any business. The list is as follows: Keep a copy of the Constitution on your Desk. Have a dog-eared copy of your company’s Code of Conduct on your desktop and be seen using it. Clout. Make sure your compliance department has authority, influence and budget within the company. Have your Chief Compliance Officer (CCO) report directly to the Board of Directors. Make them Accountable. At Senior Executive meetings, have each participant report on what they have done to further the compliance function in their business unit. Sticks and Carrots. Have both sanctions for violation of company compliance and ethics policies and incentives for doing business in a compliant manner. Don’t do as I say, Do as I do. Turn down an expensive dinner or trip offered by a vendor. Pass on a gift that you may have received. Turn down a transaction based upon ethical considerations. Be a Student. Be seen at intra-company compliance training. Take a one or two day course or attend a compliance conference outside your organization. Award Compliance. You should recognize outstanding compliance efforts with companywide announcements and awards. The Board. Recruit a nationally known compliance expert to sit on your company’s Board and chair the audit or compliance committee. Independent Review. Obtain an independent, outside review of your company’s compliance program and report the results to the Board’s Audit Committee. Mandate that all vendors in your Supply Chain embrace compliance and ethics as a business model. If not, pass on doing business with them. Talk to others in your industry and your peers on how to improve your company’s compliance efforts. Many companies struggle with some type of metric which can be used for upper management regarding compliance and communication of a company’s compliance values. One technique might be to require the CEO to post companywide emails or other communications once a quarter on some compliance related topic. The CEO’s direct reports would then also be required to email their senior management staff a minimum of once per quarter on a compliance topic. One can cascade this down the company as far as is practicable. Reminders can be set for each communication so that all personnel know when it is time to send out the message. If these communications are timely made, this metric has been met. Three Key Takeaways Senior management must actually do compliance; walk-the-walk, not simply talk-the-talk. Use your CEO to talk about current events and how those ethical failures are lessons to be learned for your organization. CEO as Compliance Ambassador.

Former FCPA violator and current anti-bribery consultant Richard Bistrong was convicted of violating the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, cooperated with the FBI, and served time in prison. Today he works with companies to help them deal with anti-bribery and compliance issues around the world. He discusses what led to his conviction, what he learned about corruption risks and the incentive structures that make bribery more likely. He also shares the advice he would give his younger self before he embarked on that first international sales trip that started it all.

Former U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) prosecutor Charles Duross talks about how he moved from prosecuting “guns, drugs, and thugs” cases to leading the DOJ team that enforces the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA), and what the FCPA means for companies today.
