Welcome to the Hughes Hubbard Anti-Corruption & Internal Investigations Practice Group’s podcast, All Things Investigation. This week, we will feature five lawyers from HHR to introduce the firm’s always popular and annual FCPA and Anti-Bribery Alert. In this fourth podcast of the 5-part series, host Tom Fox is joined by Tamara Kraljic on the key lessons learned in anti-corruption compliance and from international enforcement in 2024.
Their conversation opens with an overview of the alert’s key findings, particularly the developments in international anti-corruption enforcement. They delve into updates from Brazil, including the 10-year anniversary of the Clean Company Act and new measures by Brazil’s Office of the Comptroller General (CGU), like the ‘term of commitment’ and updated integrity program guidelines. Additionally, they touch upon France’s anti-corruption efforts, reflecting on the corporate culture of compliance and the impact of the recent Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD). The episode provides a comprehensive overview geared towards a corporate audience interested in anti-corruption trends and regulations.
Key highlights:
- Enforcement and Compliance in Brazil
- Enforcement in France and the Success of the Paris Olympics in Compliance
- ESG for US companies under the Trump Administration
