Bribery and corruption damages lives, reputations, and businesses. Yet in many countries, bribery is a regular--even accepted--business practice. The direct victims of bribery include businesses that lose out unfairly because of corrupt practices, and on a wider scale, governments and society as a whole.

This course takes an in-depth look at the causes of bribery and corruption, how to recognize red flags, and what companies should consider and include in their compliance programs to ensure that their international partners, agents, consultants, and subsidiaries comply with the rule of law.

This course covers:

• Keys to recognizing, understanding and dealing with corruption.
• The U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA), and how to ensure compliance.
• How other countries fight corruption, including the U.K’s Anti-Bribery Act and the OECD’s ‘Anti-Bribery” Convention.
