ASSOCIATION PARTNERS:
F
ollowing its 10th anniversary last year, ACI’s Houston Forum on the Foreign
Corrupt Practices Act is back to once again rally the brightest brains, senior FCPA
practitioners and cunning corporations. Why? To deliberate and devise practical,
best-practice solutions to the most immediate FCPA risks. Adding to a world economy
that is dragging its feet to recovery and market anxiety due to geopolitical uncertainties
is the recent emergence of new FCPA-related risks that need to be taken into account by
multinationals. In addition, enforcement authorities have lately been on a roll:
 A record $1.4B bribery proposal was released by the DOJ and Dutch
authorities to settle alleged bribery payments by Swedish telecom behemoth
Telia Company AB to secure business in Uzbekistan
 A Pilot Program on Voluntary Self-Disclosure is redefining the value of
cooperation with the DOJ, and the DOJ is also newly introducing the issuance of
declinations with disgorgement
 The SEC issued the Resource Extraction Disclosure Rule (Rule 13q-1) that
poses new diligence and third-party challenges to resource extraction companies
 A new SEC regulation henceforth protects a firm’s ex-employees from signing
non-disclosure agreements to prevent whistleblowing and cooperation with
the SEC that could unearth potential FCPA violations
 An insider received the SEC’s first FCPA whistleblower payment ($3.75M)
 A number of prominent global players have been slapped with heavy fines by
the SEC for FCPA-related offenses, including the second highest amount ever
for whistleblowing ($22M) awarded to a former Monsanto employee
 The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) is toying with
the idea of expanding its whistleblower protections against retaliation and
increasing payouts
THIS IS ONLY THE TIP OF THE ICEBERG and corporate legal and compliance
bosses are already feeling the heat. It is thus that this advanced FCPA forum will feature
panels that address these as well as a host of other FCPA risks. Highlight panels and
session formats in 2017 include:
 The “Transformative Impact” of the SEC’s Whistleblower Program: How and
Why Companies Need to Brace Themselves for an Increased Number of Reports
to Protect Their Investors
 FCPA MOOT COURT: Should You or Should You Not? An Interactive Debate on
the Value of Voluntary Self-Disclosure and Cooperation under the DOJ’s New
Pilot Program
 How to Mitigate the Litigation and Disclosure Risks Affiliated with FCPA
Investigations
 Do’s & Don’ts of FCPA Books and Records: How Tightening SEC Enforcement
Should Prompt You to Take a Fresh Look at Your Internal Controls
 “How Much is Too Much”: Discussion on Third Party Auditing and Monitoring
Benchmarks – A Special Focus on Developing an Effective Due Diligence Plan
