US Foreign Corrupt Practices Act - FCPA

Training for US Companies

The USA Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 (FCPA) is a United States federal law known primarily for two of its main provisions:

  •  one that addresses the offences of bribery of foreign officials by the USA businesses; and
  •  another maintaining proper accounting practices and transparency reporting requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (SEA).

 Any US based person may be held liable if prescribed practices under FCPA are not adopted.

in the light of more enforcement, proper training on FCPA requirements is a must for all executives who are involved in any international transaction.

We offer high quality world class training at your corporate site to train executives about the dos and don't of FCPA.

 We also help setting up proper FCPA Compliance Program by Harvard trained lawyers. More information on FCPA
