Anti-Corruption Frankfurt Edition Taking Anti-Corruption Compliance off the Page and onto your Working Floor Tuesday, January 29 to Wednesday, January 30, 2013 Steigenberger Frankfurter Hof, Frankfurt Taking Anti-Corruption Compliance off the Page and onto your Working Floor The UK Bribery Act has been in force for over a year with no major investigation or prosecution announcements. Reports cite a decrease in FCPA prosecutions since 2010... Think your company can relax? Think again. Avon, Lufthansa, Olympus, Biomet and Smith & Nephew are amongst a few of the companies involved in ongoing international investigations with key issues including the use of third party agents in emerging markets and the growing trend of investigations into the personal behaviour of compliance officers and senior executives.  German regulators and courts have been busy this year particularly in relation to new regulations for the monitoring of expenses in the pharmaceutical industry, personal liability of company executives and who is considered instrumental to the state for purposes of a bribery offence. These latest case and legislative developments show that successful anti-corruption compliance is a constantly evolving target which requires constant monitoring and upgrading to ensure new risks associated with new third parties, new markets and new regulatory developments are detected and minimised at the earliest opportunity. Thanks to its pre-existing, comprehensive compliance programme, Morgan Stanley persuaded US investigators that a former executive acted on his own and against the company’s established policies and thus avoided costly fines and penalties. Your company needs to take active steps to ensure that, if corruption and bribery is uncovered, it will have a similar defensive argument to Morgan Stanley. 2013’s FULLY REVISED AGENDA Reserve your seat today for what is regarded as THE must-attend event in Europe that provides up-to-date, practical and implementable solutions for the anti-corruption community.
