Session information

Panel 1: Cooperation and coordination of foreign bribery resolutions: the way forward following the 2021 Anti-Bribery Recommendation

Description

As international cooperation and coordination of foreign bribery resolutions transitions at a breath-taking pace from rare to commonplace, the global enforcement landscape has been quickly and dramatically transformed. These changes have brought new challenges to enforcers, companies and their counsels. 

Enhanced cooperation and coordination lie at the heart of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development’s (OECD) 2021 Anti-Bribery Recommendation. Why did the Working Group on Bribery put such a strong emphasis on promoting this practice? What impacts will these recommendations have in practice? And what obstacles will they encounter? 

The panel will unpack the new OECD standards and explore how they might facilitate coordination of investigations and resolutions among member countries and beyond.
