Highlights from past Alerts

Dynamic Review: Document review in new perspective (April 2013)
As the volume of electronically stored information increases at an exponential rate, many organizations are looking for new ways to manage document review and reign in escalating costs. Meanwhile, advanced analytics techniques such as predictive coding are opening the door to new opportunities for corporate legal departments, government agencies, and outside counsel looking to make sense of this growing mountain of information.
Deloitte Dash - New FCPA guidance (March 2013)
Now that the Department of Justice and Securities and Exchange Commission has issued their new Foreign Corrupt Practice Act guidance, what might this new guidance mean for your organization's anti-corruption compliance program?
New FCPA resource guide (February 2013)
Is the new FCPA Resource Guide (the “Guide”) from the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) and U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) really new or just a compilation of existing material?
Global economic outlook, 4th quarter 2012 (December 2012)
It has probably been said too many times, but it is worth repeating now. The world economy is at a crossroads. Every major region seems to be at a potential turning point.

The Risk Intelligent General Counsel (October 2012)
Legal, regulatory, and ethical risks have multiplied. In many industries, ordinary business activities have given rise to new forms of these risks. Outsourcing, innovation, and expansion into new businesses further increase them.
Communicating with stakeholders in a crisis (August 2012)

On the contrary, communicating with your constituents can help restore credibility, create clarity and pave the way for a lasting future partnership.
Corporate Development 2012 – Leveraging the power of relationships in M&A (July 2012)
By the numbers, M&A activity appears to be declining in 2012. The many flavors of uncertainty, including fiscal and political instability in the Eurozone, the seemingly endless stream of new regulation and legislation coming from the U.S. government, and slowing growth in emerging economies like China and India, all appear to be conspiring to depress deal flow.
How Vigilant is Vigilant Enough? (June 2012)
Companies and their advisors often struggle with the magnitude and complexity of data systems when determining how to best test for compliance with anti-corruption laws or respond to regulatory inquiries. As companies continue to seek business opportunities in emerging and risky markets, and as aggressive enforcement of global anti-corruption laws continues unabated, the need to develop effective and cost-efficient testing solutions takes on a greater urgency.
