Our comprehensive overview begins with an analysis of enforcement statistics, revealing the current landscape of FCPA cases – how many are ongoing, and how many have recently concluded. Delve into the dynamic world of enforcement, including the intriguing inclusion of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission in FCPA enforcement efforts.

Explore a curated selection of recent cases, taking a "shallow dive" into the latest alterations to "Attachment C" – the component of FCPA settlements that delineates ongoing compliance obligations for corporate entities settling with the US Department of Justice (DoJ) and Securities Exchange Commission (SEC).

To cap it off, embark on a concise tour of key FCPA compliance elements, accompanied by a discussion of valuable sources of information for compliance and audit professionals. We will cover a range of resources, from official US government publications (e.g., the SEC/DOJ FCPA Resource Guide, DOJ Evaluation of Corporate Compliance Program memo March 2023 update, and more) to relevant academic and industry portals.

This online webinar will be facilitated by Pete Viksnins, an esteemed FCPA investigations and compliance professional with extensive experience. He also serves as an adjunct faculty member at The George Washington University, co-teaching a Fraud and forensics course to Masters of Accountancy students.
