Anti-corruption enforcement activity is increasingly global. Companies must comply with international anti-bribery laws or risk severe penalties, whilst facing growing public expectations of good ethical behaviour and pressure from stakeholders to improve results.
FTI Consulting’s Anti-Corruption Investigations & Compliance team provides leading global capabilities to help companies investigate, mitigate and prevent corruption issues. Our specialists advise internal and external counsel, government-appointed monitors and corporate compliance officers, and have led over 300 multi-jurisdictional Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) and UK Bribery Act (UKBA) corruption cases.
