On June 30, 2015, the eve of the fourth anniversary of the date on which the UK Bribery Act of 2010 became effective (July 1, 2011), I hosted an interesting webcast on the Bribery Act with four leading professionals in the UK. The panel, which included two former senior officials from the UK’s Serious Fraud Office, discussed the current state of the UK’s enforcement of the Bribery Act, as well as the imminent debut of Deferred Prosecution Agreements in the UK later this year and a possible new law that would target corporations’ failure to prevent fraud.
