Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bribery Act 2010 is the most significant reform of UK bribery law in a century. This critical analysis offers an explanation of the Act, makes comparisons with similar legislation in other jurisdictions and provides a critical commentary, from both a UK and a US perspective, on the collapse of the distinction between public and private sector bribery. Drawing on their academic and practical experience, the contributors also analyse the prospects for enforcement and the difficulties facing lawyers seeking asset recovery following the laundering of the proceeds of bribery. International perspectives are provided via comparisons with the law in Spain, Hong Kong, the USA and Italy, together with broader analysis of the application of the law in relation to EU anti-corruption initiatives, international development and the arms trade.

Book Synopsis Parting the Fog of the UK Bribery Act 2010 by : Ren-En Lim
Download or read book Parting the Fog of the UK Bribery Act 2010 written by Ren-En Lim and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bribery Act 2010 (“the Act”) received Royal Assent in April 2010, finally coming into effect on July 1, 2011. As Jack Straw indicated at the 5th European Forum on Anti-Corruption in June 2009, the aim of the Act is to foster a “zero-tolerance culture” towards corruption in business. In furtherance of this aim, compliance advice, the Ministry of Justice's (“MOJ”) “Guidance for Relevant Commercial Organisations” has been released. While the MOJ was required by the Act to publish this guidance, businesses should not treat the guidance as fully authoritative since the guidance does not change the wording of the Act. Nevertheless, the guidance provided is comprehensive, focusing in particular on how the adequate procedures defence to the s.7 offence (failure of commercial organisations to prevent bribery) may be established. Despite the guidance, however, there remains considerable uncertainty among businesses on the key issues of corporate hospitality and facilitation payments, as well as the potential costs of prosecution under the Act.This article will address those uncertainties and will be split into two parts. The first part will discuss all of the general offences under the Act, but will focus in particular on s.1 (which covers corporate hospitality) and s.6 (which covers facilitation payments). The second part focuses on the enforcement aspects of the Act, which will help businesses in undertaking their own cost-benefit analysis to rationalise whether or not compliance with the Act is worth their while. The importance of this analysis cannot be overestimated since the Act's intention is to allow for a systemic shift whereby bribery is not seen as a legitimate operational cost of business. In this regard, it appears that the Act will be used in a way to punish recalcitrant offenders much more severely if they continue to brazenly engage in bribery, while at the same time being more lenient towards those who are determined to rid their companies of corrupt practices. It is therefore the aim of this article to demonstrate precisely that the above proposition is true, and that businesses will seek to lose much more if they do not comply with the Act.

Download or read book Bribery Act 2010 written by Great Britain and published by . This book was released on 2010-04-27 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of the Act is to reform the criminal law of bribery to provide for a new consolidated scheme of bribery offences to cover bribery both in the United Kingdom (UK) and abroad. The Act replaces the offences at common law and under the Public Bodies Corrupt Practices Act 1889, the Prevention of Corruption Act 1906 and the Prevention of Corruption Act 1916 (known collectively as the Prevention of Corruption Acts 1889 to 1916 and which will be repealed) with two general offences. The first covers the offering, promising or giving of an advantage (broadly, offences of bribing another person). The second deals with the requesting, agreeing to receive or accepting of an advantage (broadly, offences of being bribed). The formulation of these two offences abandons the agent/principal relationship on which the previous law was based in favour of a model based on an intention to induce improper conduct. The Act also creates a discrete offence of bribery of a foreign public official and a new offence where a commercial organisation fails to prevent bribery.
Book Synopsis Bribery and Corruption by : Brian P. Loughman
Download or read book Bribery and Corruption written by Brian P. Loughman and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-12-06 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As businesses continue to expand globally into new and emerging markets, bribery and corruption risks have increased exponentially. Bribery and Corruption offers a comprehensive look at this growing problem, and at the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) and other international anti-bribery and corruption conventions. Presenting hypothetical examples of situations companies will face, along with practical solutions, the book offers detailed global guidance on a region and country-specific basis. The FCPA prohibits US companies and their subsidiaries from bribing foreign officials, either directly or indirectly through intermediaries, for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. It also requires companies to keep accurate records of all business transactions and maintain an effective system of internal accounting controls. Internationally, the Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development's (OECD's) anti-bribery convention has been adopted by 38 countries and creates legally binding standards related to bribery of foreign public officials. Written by renowned accounting fraud experts Richard A. Sibery and Brian P. Loughman, and providing an introduction and overview of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) and international bribery laws, Bribery and Corruption considers: How to conduct FCPA risk assessments and investigations How to consider FCPA specific financial controls How to implement an FCPA compliance program and how to measure FCPA compliance The risk of bribery and corruption continues to be an area of concern for companies around the world, but armed with Bribery and Corruption, it is easier than ever to understand the challenges that exist and how to deal with them.

Book Synopsis The OECD Convention on Bribery by : Mark Pieth
Download or read book The OECD Convention on Bribery written by Mark Pieth and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2013-12-19 with total page 980 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The OECD Convention on Bribery established an international standard for compliance with anti-corruption rules, and has subsequently been adopted by the thirty-four OECD members and six non-member countries. As a result of the Convention and national implementation laws, companies and managers now risk tough sanctions if they are caught bribing foreign officials. The UK Bribery Act 2010 is only one example of this development. The second edition of this, the only commentary on the Convention, provides law practitioners, company lawyers and academic researchers with comprehensive guidance on the OECD standards. It includes case examples as well as the FCPA Resource Guide 2012 and the 2009 OECD Recommendation for Further Combating Bribery of Foreign Public Officials with Annexes I and II.
