FCPA Compliance Report

Jonathan Armstrong on the UKBA, GDPR and Modern Slavery Compliance

Listen Later

The FCPA Compliance Report is the longest running podcast in compliance, premiering on July 31, 2015. This week begins a series of podcasts leading up to the 500th anniversary episode of the FCPA Compliance Report, which will post on Monday, August 31. Over the next five episodes, I will post podcasts of 5 top FCPA and compliance commentators. Over this week, I will be joined by Mike Volkov, Matt Kelly, Jonathan Armstrong, Jay Rosen and Jonathan Marks. Each will speak about the evolution of compliance from their own unique perspective. In this episode, I visit with Jonathan Armstrong, co-founder of Cordery Compliance. We take a look back at the evolution of UK and EU laws around bribery, data privacy/data protection and modern slavery and the compliance response.   

 Some of the highlights include:

  • The UK Bribery Act was a seminal law for international anti-corruption enforcement which brought another sheriff to town.
  • How tech monopolies have led to greater enforcement in the UK and EU.
  • How one person can make a change. Max Schrems was a law school student in 2011.
  • How the US model of FCPA enforcement influenced regulators across the globe.
  • The evolution of DPAs in the UK and elsewhere.
  • Armstrong believes the fight against slavery is a job only half well done.
