PURPOSE
Anti-bribery laws are tightening up globally. Strictly enforced US laws such as the Foreign Corrupt Practices act (FCPA) are sharing the stage with stricter legislation from other countries: the new UK Bribery act is scheduled to come into force on 1 July 2011.
This even will provide an overview of the anti-bribery regulation and enforcement landscape, the application and relevance of international anti-bribery legislation for businesses operating in Denmark, and highlight best practices for companies and individuals affected. The FCPA as well as the UK Bribery Act will be covered. We will encourage participation and debate from all delegates and welcome the sharing of experiences or issues.
