In July 0f 2020, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), released the second edition of its resource guide on the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA). This is only the second resource guide issued by the DOJ and the SEC on the FCPA and updates the first resource guide issued eight years ago, in 2012.
Understanding the FCPA and Thai anti-corruption laws is critical to everyone doing business in Thailand. Financial penalties for FCPA violations have increased substantially, with an estimated 2.9 billion in fines imposed for violations that involved Asia Pacific, including Thailand. And a DOJ official announced in 2019 that the DOJ will focus on individuals responsible for FCPA violations, stating "the most effective deterrent to corporate criminal conduct is identifying people who commit crimes and sending them to prison"
Stay current on this challenging subject with our panel of experts on the FCPA and Thai anti-corruption laws. The panel will include a senior compliance officer from Chevron, Sangita Patel, who will join from the U.S. and provide an in-house perspective on the compliance challenges presented by the FCPA; Douglas Mancill, who has worked with U.S., European and Japanese multinationals on the FCPA and other anti-corruption laws for over thirty years; Shin Honma, who leads the Risk Consulting and Forensic Services practice for PcW Thailand; and John Frangos, a partner at Tilleke who co-leads the firm's compliance and investigations practice.
