Strafford Publications Webinar: FCPA Investigations and Privacy Protection

James Parkinson spoke on the Strafford webinar titled "FCPA Investigations and Privacy Protection: Safeguarding Data and Avoiding Violations of U.S. and International Privacy Laws," on August 11, 2009.

The U.S. Department of Justice and Securities and Exchange Commission have ramped up FCPA enforcement. Employees working in other countries may assume a "when-in-Rome" attitude without realizing or understanding that such behavior may violate U.S. laws and regulations.

Thus, many companies must undertake internal investigations — or are subject to government investigations — into potential FCPA violations. Such investigations often take place in foreign countries, requiring the company to comply with that country's privacy laws.

In fact gathering and obtaining, reviewing and producing records, companies and counsel must be careful to comply with U.S. and other countries' privacy laws during investigations to avoid additional liability exposure.
