Anti-Bribery and Anti-Corruption Compliance
The Wallenstein Law Group
We work to reasonably minimize liability and facilitate sustainable commercial growth with risk-based solutions that do not impede legal business. This may include:
- Representation and advocacy before US and international enforcement authorities (e.g., the Department of Justice, the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Departments of State, Commerce, and Treasury, the World Bank and associated multilateral development banks, and international financial institutions).
- Program gap analyses, benchmarked against industry peers and pan-industry standards and practices.
- Global and focused risk and fraud assessments.
- Program, code of conduct, and policy/procedure benchmarking, design and implementation.
- Enhanced internal controls designed to parallel recent US DOJ and other enforcement agency principles.
- Internal investigations systems development, e.g.:
- Setting up and running internal investigations regimes, including best practice policy and guideline drafting.
- Hotline setup.
- Third party vendor selection and management.
- Investigatory training.
- Appropriate metrics to measure and monitor effectiveness.
- Third party due diligence program creation and management.
- Third party and business partner due diligence optimization, using benchmarking and risk-based analysis to increase process efficiency without increasing risk.
- Multilingual training and communications, including:
- Tailored training and scheduling – both general and risk-based.
- Focused training (e.g., how to conduct and appropriately document/record an internal investigation).
- New country market entry assessments.
- The development of functional, senior management and board reporting templates, including designing metrics to measure and monitor program effectiveness.
- Third party vendor comparisons (e.g., hotline and case management providers; online training providers; background check and screening providers; and automated third party due diligence systems).
- Certifications for the ISO 37001 standard on anti-bribery management systems.
