A DECADE OF THE UK BRIBERY ACT – LESSONS FOR COMPANIES FROM ENFORCEMENT ACTIONS SO FAR

An article from Allen & Overy on 28 June asks what can companies learn from concluded enforcement actions in the past decade?  It identifies –

·         Beware insider risk;

·         Bribes are usually disguised;

·         A single corrupt transaction can be enough to attract prosecutor attention;

·         Policies and procedures must be effective;

·         Shore up the final defences; and

·         Weigh up the pros and cons of entering into a deferred prosecution agreement.
