The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (“FCPA”) was passed in 1977. It required issuers to institute accounting controls and to maintain accurate books and records and, outlawed foreign bribe payments. Initially, the United States stood alone in outlawing foreign bribery. But, as a result of a concerted effort spanning twenty years, the United States has convinced foreign nations to enjoin in international agreements and implement domestic laws outlawing foreign bribery. Consequently, any company doing business abroad must master and keep abreast of current developments in the area.
