Listen Later

The award-winning 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. Looking for some hard-hitting insights on compliance? Look no further than Compliance into the Weeds!


In this episode, Tom Fox and Matt Kelly take a deep dive into the RTX Foreign Corrupt Practices Act enforcement action.


Their discussion unveils complex bribery schemes involving millions paid to Qatari agents and the family of the Emir to secure defense contracts. Despite strict regulatory oversight, Raytheon’s (now RTX) compliance missteps spanned from 2012 into the 2020s, resulting in massive fines. Matt and Tom scrutinize these failures, detailing the SEC and DOJ’s mandates for dual monitorships due to violations of the False Claims Act and FCPA and the Board’s critical role in addressing these issues. Additionally, a comparative look at other significant FCPA cases, including Moog’s penalties for bribery in India, highlights persistent corporate misconduct and the ongoing challenges in achieving effective corporate compliance.

  •  Overview of Raytheon’s Violations
  •  Qatari Agent and Further Corruption
  •  Raytheon’s Compliance Failures
  • Management and Compliance Failures
  • Board Oversight and Responsibilities
