“When you are at the government for a long period of time, you see the pendulum swing back and forth,” Brockmeyer told Corporate Crime Reporter in an interview last week. “Yes, we are in a period, particularly in the FCPA area, where we saw the Department of Justice step away from a number of cases that were SEC only FCPA enforcement actions. There was a period of time where the Department was on every case that the SEC brought in the FCPA area. Now, the Department seems to be picking their battles on where they want to expend their resources.”
