Client/Legal Alert
The UK Serious Fraud Office has withdrawn its existing guidance in relation to facilitation payments, self-reporting and corporate hospitality and that guidance is currently under revision. Whilst the SFO has not stated how extensive the revision of its enforcement policies will be, it is generally anticipated that the SFO will be taking a less lenient approach to enforcement of the UK Bribery Act.

Client/Legal Alert
Companies recognise that they must assess and manage risk in relation to bribery and corruption compliance; the question is, how to do so without opening a Pandora's box? It is imperative that companies can act without fear that resulting documents and communications may be disclosed, whether to a regulator, the Australian Federal Police or otherwise. Legal privilege is therefore an important first consideration.
