International Compliance

Compliance violations by and within businesses have now
assumed international proportions. At the same time, the
responsibility of both local and corporate management
to prevent compliance violations has increased all over
the world. Within this context, this book provides an international
review of effective compliance regulations.
Lawmakers in the applicable economic areas are increasingly
regulating the legal frameworks of business operations
in areas such as corruption, antitrust law, data protection,
money laundering, foreign trade law or customs
in a stricter way, with more severe legal consequences,
and imposing more barriers on international operations.
With respect to 30 jurisdictions, international experts
answer
important questions such as: What are the liabilities
of a business, manager or shareholder in a given
country and how can they defend themselves? What are
the major areas of law and threats they should take account
of and how are they enforced? In addition, our experts
provide useful tips for foreign shareholders and
compliance or legal departments regarding the issues
they should pay special attention to.
