• 8. Facts

  “With 32 combined FCPA enforcement actions, 51 total cases including ancillary enforcement, and a record-setting $2.78 billion in corporate fines and penalties (plus billions more collected by foreign regulators), 2020 marks another robust year in the annals of FCPA enforcement.”

  Gibson Dunn

  “COVID-19 is not just a health and economic crisis. It’s a corruption crisis. And one that we’re currently failing to manage.”

  Transparency International

  “Enforcement of U.S. sanctions continued to be strong in 2020. OFAC brought 15 public enforcement actions focusing on the e-commerce, banking, shipping, and insurance industries. OFAC has also been focusing on transactions involving the tech sector and the use of digital currencies to evade sanctions ( including through ransomware attacks ). Expect this trend to continue in 2021.”
