| 6th European Forum on Anti-Corruption - September 29-30, 2009 - Paris, France |
|
C5’s Forum on Anti-Corruption is the must-attend event for Compliance Officers, General Counsel and Internal Auditors of multinational companies. In September 2008, over 120 of your colleagues attended the Paris Anti-Corruption Boot Camp to network and hear from leading compliance officers and legal experts on the latest enforcement actions in Europe and best risk management strategies. This year’s event look set to be even bigger!
Anti-corruption enforcement is on the rise. The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) and other national anti-corruption law violations are serious business for companies and their executives. It is expected that the combination of increased scrutiny and the financial crisis will make FCPA violations surge throughout 2009. In order to counter potential liabilities, at a time when prosecutors are getting more suspicious and have greater tools of investigation, companies are advised to conduct a complete overhaul of their compliance programmes.
This Forum on Anti-Corruption is the only event to provide industry-specific solutions by highlighting in detail the current challenges and putting forward the possible solutions through real case studies and comparative legal analysis of the options available. Our agenda is the direct result of interviews with 50+ in-house counsel, compliance officers, internal auditors and experts. Key Topics include: - Maintaining adequate internal controls to comply with the books and records provisions of the FCPA - Conducting pre-transactional anti-corruption due diligence - Due diligence on third parties, agents and other intermediaries: implementing a policy that minimises liability risks - Tailoring and implementing effective and value-based anti-corruption compliance policies in high risk countries - Building an effective whistleblowing policy that overcomes legal and sensitive cultural obstacles - Conducting a cost-effective internal investigation and managing voluntary disclosures - Settlement negotiations: Achieving global settlements and dealing with post-settlement compliance challenges - Working with compliance monitors effectively in the best interests of the company - Developing effective training programmes that meet your anti-corruption compliance standards and objectives Date:
