About the Book

The Bribery Act is one of the most far-reaching and controversial pieces of legislation of recent years. It radically reforms the law and extends the liabilities and risks of businesses in particular, with effects well beyond the borders of the United Kingdom. The Act sets new standards for anti-corruption law internationally. Compliance with it is of urgent interest both to domestic concerns and international companies with any presence in the UK. This new book is the first thorough analysis of the key elements of the Bribery Act and how it will apply. All the main offences are covered and considered in context. The issue of "adequate procedures" for businesses to prevent bribery is explored and the most up to date government guidance is included. The civil law of bribery is also explained. This is an essential work for anyone doing business internationally, including in-house lawyers, compliance officers, company secretaries, non-executive directors, and corporate and criminal lawyers in private practice.
