Amidst continued growth in overseas investment and cross-border business transactions, regulators are aggressively enforcing anti-bribery and corruption regulations. Given this reality, it’s critical that companies that do business in countries or industries that may be more susceptible to these problems take steps to ensure that their compliance programs are effective. AlixPartners’ professionals have the experience and expertise to help companies and their counsel avoid and/or investigate potential and alleged violations of the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA), UK Bribery Act, OFAC regulations and other anti-corruption laws – whenever and wherever they are needed.
Anti-bribery and corruption investigations require global investigative capabilities and expertise in fact-gathering, electronic discovery, and financial and forensic accounting analysis. With 16 offices globally, including Europe, the Middle East, and Asia, and an established track record of advising companies and individuals that are the subject of investigation, we are prepared to address critical situations that involve alleged misconduct anywhere in the world.
We uncover evidence, unwind complicated transactions, reconstruct events from incomplete information or corrupt data, prepare formal reports to law enforcement and design controls that will help prevent future occurrences.
