Experts predict that 2009 will be a record year for prosecuting violators of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA). And even more companies will find out inadvertently that corruption risk is often the hidden vulnerability of doing business abroad – a vulnerability that has significant strategic, financial and reputation consequences.
Join experts from Protiviti – a global business consulting and internal audit firm – and Arnall Golden Gregory – a law firm that serves the business needs of growing public and private companies – for a webinar that examines the FCPA and how it affects companies and not-for-profits looking to do business abroad.
Through this webinar, attendees will:
- Understand how the FCPA applies to public and private organizations
- Hear a brief background of the Act and recent trends
- Find out how to incorporate corruption scenarios into a fraud risk assessment
- Learn how to use electronic data analysis to monitor transactions often used to facilitate bribes and kick-backs
