Compliance into the Weeds is the only weekly podcast which takes a deep dive into a compliance related topic, literally going into the weeds to more fully explore a subject. Today, Matt and Tom take a deep dive into the recently released US Strategy on Countering Corruption. After beginning with a debate on whether the document is simply a nice to have or something more significant, some of the issues we consider are:

• What is the significance domestically v. internationally?
• What new data will be collected and analyzed?
• What new agencies and departments in the US government will be involved?
• What additional international NGOs will be involved?
• Enhanced whistleblower protections?
• New focus on government procurement and in the Department of Defense.
