Mini vandePol, Global Chair of the Compliance and Investigations Group of Baker & McKenzie, and a partner with over 24 years’ experience, is recognized as one of the world’s leading anti-bribery and corruption lawyers.  She was born in India, raised in Australia, and worked professionally in Australia, and now Hong Kong. She is the editor of the popular Global Attorney-Client Privilege Handbook and has published a wide range of articles focused on anti-bribery and corruption compliance in Australia, India and elsewhere in Asia. In this wide-ranging podcast conversation, Mini gives us her views of developments in China, India and elsewhere in Asia—including just why corruption is such an important issue, why the promotion of women could be the “game changer” Asia can exploit profitably, and much more.
