Anti-Bribery & Corruption Advisory

Countries are enacting anti-bribery statutes and regulations of increasing complexity, while simultaneously enforcing these laws rigorously with greater cross-border enforcement coordination. Organizations and their outside counsel rely on FTI Consulting to help evaluate and enhance compliance programs as needed, including addressing regulatory expectations around internal controls and continuous monitoring. We understand specific challenges such as internal control enhancement and the use of data analytics to enable a client to use its own data to maintain and enhance its compliance program. We assist organizations and their outside counsel in implementing programs and measuring a program’s effectiveness.

How We Help

Our professionals are located globally and assist client organizations in mitigating corruption risk. For decades, our integrated teams of senior practitioners have advised and assisted organizations in every industry and geographic sector, legal firms, and enforcement agencies. White-collar defense attorneys and governmental agencies, as well as corporate general counsel (GC), chief compliance officers (CCOs) and corporate directors routinely seek our assistance to help them manage corruption risks and avoid violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA), the U.K. Bribery Act (UKBA), Brazil’s Clean Company Act, and other related global anti-corruption statutes.

You benefit from our tailored, holistic solutions that reflect our combined deep industry expertise, experience with complex anticorruption assignments, and our data and analytics capabilities.
