Mark P. Goodman and Bruce E. Yannett, partners at Debevoise & Plimpton LLP, and Daniel J. Fetterman, a partner at Kasowitz, Benson, Torres & Friedman LLP, are the FCPA experts behind “Defending Clients in Foreign Corrupt Practices Investigations,” a chapter in the 2012 treatise “Defending Corporations and Individuals in Government Investigations.”  Their chapter addresses the hot button issues companies are facing today as the SEC and DOJ continue to increase the pressure on global companies to implement and enforce best of breed FCPA compliance programs.  Goodman and Fetterman recently shared their insight on some of these pressing issues with the Anti-Corruption Report.  In our interview, they discussed how far the FCPA’s jurisdiction reaches in light of recent case law and the FCPA Guidance, including the jurisdictional implications for aiders, abettors and conspirators; details regarding rewards under the new Dodd-Frank whistleblower provisions; who is a foreign official and whether it matters; how companies should handle facilitation payments; advice on reasonable business expenses after the Guidance; the concept of virtual strict liability in accounting violations of the FCPA; how judicial review will impact settlements; the collateral effects of an FCPA settlement; and when to self-report an FCPA violation.
