  • Although the FCPA remains a driving force in the fight against corruption, the past ten years have witnessed dramatic changes in the global enforcement landscape. Anti-corruption enforcement is no longer limited to a few countries, and extraterritorial reach is no longer an exclusive feature of the U.S. legislation. More broadly, the globalization of white collar enforcement has introduced new challenges, including in conducting internal investigations, engaging with law enforcement authorities, and reaching multijurisdictional settlements. At the same time, compliance standards have emerged as hot topics for companies operating worldwide.

    This inaugural conference represents a unique collaboration between the New York City Bar Association and the International Bar Association. It will provide an interactive gathering of lawyers based in the United States and from around the globe. Expert panels will address:

    • anti-corruption developments
    • global enforcement trends
    • challenges in conducting cross-border investigations

    Participants will tackle challenging questions posed by the reality of enforcement authorities not always on the same page. The symposium also will address various corporate compliance challenges and means of effectively combating them. The program will include a networking luncheon for all participants as well as a kickoff reception the night before.
