Bribery remains a major compliance risk worldwide. From high-risk markets to US enforcement actions under the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA), recent cases demonstrate how quickly reputational and financial damage can occur.
Organisations must understand emerging trends, identify vulnerabilities, and implement controls that can withstand scrutiny across jurisdictions.
VinciWorks compliance experts delivered a practical session focused on real-world bribery cases and lessons for global compliance programmes. Using case studies from recent UK and international enforcement, including FCPA actions, deferred prosecution agreements, and high-profile corporate investigations, this webinar provided insights on designing, evidencing, and testing effective anti-bribery procedures.
What this session covered:
- Key lessons from recent UK and international bribery cases, including FCPA enforcement in the US
- Identifying high-risk countries and sectors, and where bribery risks often emerge
- Analysing deferred prosecution agreements and enforcement trends to strengthen controls
- Practical guidance on due diligence, third-party oversight, and staff training
