In this Episode of the FCPA Compliance Report, I am joined by fan fav James Koukios, partner at Morrison & Foerster and editor of the firm’s great monthly International Anti-Corruption Developments Newsletter. In this episode we look back to some of the key developments from the January and February newsletters.
