When will a company be held responsible if its employees are involved in wrongdoing? Are all companies measured by the same degree of accountability? And how is anti-corruption legislation applied when multiple jurisdictions are involved?
The UK is strengthening its anti-corruption legislation, making significant changes that will introduce a statutory test for corporate criminal liability, introducing a new strict liability offence of failure to prevent fraud, and expanding the investigative powers of the UK’s Serious Fraud Office. In this episode, we explore what impact these significant changes will have on Canadian and other international businesses.
Joining us for this special cross-border episode are Neil O’May and Naomi Miles. Neil is a partner who leads our corporate crime practice in London, and advises and defends some of the world's most prominent organizations and individuals in investigations and prosecutions involving international fraud, corruption and market abuse. Naomi is a senior associate in our London office, who focuses on complex multi-jurisdictional investigations, risk mitigation and compliance.
Note: since recording, the UK Parliament has made the decision to drop the offence of failing to prevent money laundering. You can read more about that decision here.
CPD credits: This episode is accredited 0.7 substantive hours in Ontario and 0.7 substantive hours in British Columbia.
