Peter Barnes AnalyzesTax and Foreign Corrupt Practices Act on ABA Tax WebinarÂ
Join the In-House Counsel Committee and Peter Barnes, former IFA Global President and Of Counsel at Caplin & Drysdale, DC, who will discuss Tax and The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA). Peter also served 23 years as a senior in-house tax executive at GE and is a graduate of Yale Law School.
Topics:
- The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act has taken a lower profile because of reduced US enforcement. But the Act is still potent, especially because almost all countries have a parallel prohibition on corrupt payments.
- An FCPA violation can ruin your career, even if you were not directly involved. What are your team members doing?
- Consider real-life examples of the risks that tax departments face every day, whether they are prepared for the risks or not.
- And consider how to mitigate those risks.
- You will survive a tax audit. You will not survive an FCPA violation, unless you handle it correctly.
