What the FCPA Criminal Enforcement Pause Means for International Firms and Organizations
President Trump ordered Attorney General Pam Bondi to “pause” new Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) enforcement for 180 days while the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) refocuses criminal enforcement of the statute. The Executive Order is potentially among the most significant enforcement developments related to the FCPA in years.
Keep in mind that FCPA remains a law and has a five year statute of limitation. International contractors and recipients must also comply with the laws and policies of the countries in which they operate.
