Description

It’s the day you dread as General Counsel of a PLC. Your compliance officer in an overseas office rings you to tell you she thinks some employees have been paying bribes. What should you do? How do you manage an investigation with issues in several countries? Things couldn’t get worse, when you get a call from a journalist asking questions. And then, the overseas office is raided by law enforcement. The scenario will unfold through an interactive multi-media session and you, the audience, will be the board – it’s up to you to decide what to do at each stage. You will be guided by a panel of expert investigations lawyers who can provide advice and insight from their experience across jurisdictions, but the ultimate decision-making will rest with you!
