A Focus on Victims’ Rights Leads to Investor Payouts in Credit Suisse Case – WSJ

By Securities Docket on August 4, 2022, 8:16 am

For two decades, federal prosecutors have aggressively prosecuted companies and executives that pay bribes to win business overseas, most often through use of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, an antibribery law passed in 1977. But rarely have they sought to identify specific victims of corruption.
