Compliance into the Weeds is the only weekly podcast which takes a deep dive into a compliance related topic, literally going into the weeds to more fully explore a subject. In this episode, Matt Kelly (the coolest guy in compliance) and I take a deep dive into some of the difficulties around distributors in anti-corruption compliance.   Some of the highlights include: Ø The recent Polycom FCPA enforcement action highlighted several FCPA enforcement actions from 2018 involving distributors.Ø How do discounts, coupons, rebates, and sales devices circulate among your company, distributors, and end customers? Distributors present these and other issues separate from sales agents and employees.Ø What do the Sanofi and Stryker enforcement actions tell us around compliance?Ø Why does Document Document Document continue to be a mantra for anti-corruption compliance?   For additional reading see Matt’s blog posts Distributors, FCPA, and Internal Controls — Lessons for Anti-Bribery & Corruption Programsin Navex Global’s Ethics and Compliance Matters For more on the Polycom FCPA enforcement action, see Tom’s blog post, “Follow the Money Through Distributors”
