FCPA Lessons Learned

Four Important Findings

  • The never-ending story
    FCPA compliance is not a one-time event; instead, it requires the frequent review of business relationships to detect newly evolved risks. Company owner’s change frequently, Foreign Officials gain influence and intermediaries weave their web of connections. The ongoing vetting of business relationships is critical to ensure protection – protection of your organization’s reputation as well as your own career.
  • Keep your hands clean
    The ongoing vetting process of all business relationships requires a cost efficient automated process, which limits the manual work and avoids traditional ad-hoc due diligence reports. Imagine an elegant comparison between two databases; your business relationships and a Global FCPA List. The resulting report easily highlights Foreign Officials in your business network. Today’s turnkey solutions require no IT investment and can be set up in a matter of hours.
  • Getting dirty means, “Risking it all”
    FCPA investigations have resulted in fines exceeding one Billion dollars. In addition, the investigations have ended the careers of more than 100 compliance executives in the last few years. Paying bribes, knowingly or unknowingly, represents an intolerable risk to the organization you serve, to your future and ultimately to your freedom.
  • A picture says more than a thousand words
    A quality FCPA List contains in depth profiles with many unique identifiers including photographs, national ID’s, dates of birth, and other critical details. This quality ensures a fast and efficient due diligence process by allowing you to focus your resources to the business partners which matter.
