November begins the final push for the compliance conference season, which customarily ends with the ACI National FCPA Conference. During November and into early December, Department of Justice (DOJ) officials have traditionally given remarks about various areas of interest for the compliance practitioner. The DOJ continued the tradition of providing solid information to the compliance practitioner as recently as last week when Assistant Attorney General Leslie R. Caldwell, spoke at her alma mater, George Washington University School of Law, on Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) enforcement. Every compliance practitioner should study these remarks, for if the DOJ (and Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for that matter) have demonstrated one thing over the past several years, they clearly communicate their enforcement priorities.
