Companies in the extractives industry faced the most anti-bribery investigations last year, and U.S. investigations into bribery of foreign officials in the aerospace, defense, and security industries also increased. Globally, however, anti-bribery enforcement actions fell in 2019.

The report is a helpful resource for compliance, risk, and legal professionals that want to better understand which countries are enforcing anti-bribery laws or where bribery and corruption are prevalent to guide their risk management efforts.
