Overview

This publication from the Serious Fraud Office aims to give board-level readers in the UK and international businesses informed commentary on the impact of anti-fraud and anti-corruption legislation.

As the scope of this legislation continues to expand and interact more with the legislation in other jurisdictions, so the landscape for best practice compliance and fraud prevention has become increasingly complex. This comprehensive publication features 36 articles containing detailed analysis and commentary from lawyers, accountants and specialist anti-fraud consultants. Areas covered include:

● The Bribery Act 2010: implications for global businesses and individual directors;

● cartels: competing within the rules;

● insider trading: knowing the rules;

● the main fraud offences prosecuted by the SFO;

● due diligence: know your business partners;

● serious financial crime in the financial services sector;

● preparing for a ‘dawn raid' and dealing with the aftermath;

● the problems of creating criminal corporate liability in the investigation of fraud;
