Overview
Significant announcements in United States about US Department of Justice (DOJ) enforcement priorities, along with major developments in the United Kingdom legal landscape, promise to dramatically shift how corporations approach and evaluate compliance risk in the year ahead.
Join members of McDermott’s global compliance team as they assess recent developments and discuss how companies are modifying their compliance programs.
Discussion topics will include:
- Recent announcements from the new DOJ leadership and how they may affect cross-border enforcement and compliance priorities
- The new UK Economic Crime & Corporate Transparency Act’s seismic changes to corporate criminal liability, how the law applies to non-UK companies, and what companies must do now
- European updates on whistleblowing protection, the EU Directive on corruption, the Sapin III law proposal, continued strong enforcement, and changes related to French regulators
