Kevin E. Davis and Veronica Root Martinez (New York University School of Law and Notre Dame Law School) have posted Compliance with Anti-Corruption Law (in D. Daniel Sokol and Benjamin van Rooij eds., Cambridge Handbook of Compliance (Cambridge University Press, forthcoming)) on SSRN. Here is the abstract:
This chapter focuses on private firms’ compliance with norms concerning transnational bribery. It begins with an overview of the regulatory context and obstacles to effective enforcement norms against transnational bribery. It then reviews how compliance is defined, how it ought to be defined, and obstacles to the achievement of optimal compliance. Finally, it ends by focusing on the next steps forward in this space: (1) greater information sharing from private firms to outsiders in order to better analyze and evaluate the current efficacy of compliance programs targeting anti-bribery, and (2) increased co-ordination between enforcement agencies on the state and global level to better tackle transnational bribery.
