Frequently Asked Questions

What is the FCPA and who does it apply to?

The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) is a U.S. law that prohibits bribery of foreign officials and requires accurate record-keeping. It applies to U.S. companies, foreign companies listed on U.S. exchanges, and certain foreign persons and entities.

What are the penalties for FCPA violations?

FCPA violations can result in significant criminal and civil penalties, including multi-million dollar fines, disgorgement of profits, and imprisonment for individuals. Companies may also face debarment from government contracts.

How can we protect our company from FCPA liability?

Implementing a robust compliance program, conducting thorough due diligence on third parties, providing regular training, and promptly investigating any red flags can help protect your company from FCPA liability.

What should we do if we discover a potential FCPA violation?

Contact legal counsel immediately to conduct an internal investigation, assess the situation, and determine the appropriate course of action, which may include voluntary disclosure to authorities.
