This chart is a questionnaire on the regulation of recall campaigns of defective produces in Argentina, Brazil and Chile.
A panel of global experts will address the main legal issues to consider when undertaking a recall campaign of products sold in more than one jurisdiction. As information sharing among consumer protection agencies has become more common, in-house counsel should be aware of the various types of regulations in connection with product liability and recall campaigns. Learn the different types of recall campaign regulations around the world (hazardousness, defectiveness, etc.), practical tips to launch a recall campaign in several jurisdictions without violating local rules, initial and subsequent reporting obligations triggered by recall campaign rules and indemnifications arising from a recall campaign.
As more jurisdictions adopt and enforce anti-corruption laws with different legal standards and territorial reach, in-house counsel face increasing pressure to manage compliance on a global scale with resources that don’t necessarily grow in proportion. This panel will explore how to go beyond addressing national anti-corruption laws as they emerge. Experienced compliance professionals will discuss best practices to ensure effective and efficient ongoing monitoring and improvement of a compliance program in a streamlined manner across borders, secure and leverage resources within the business and build up a long-term culture of compliance that preserves consistency across the business while adapting to local laws and cultural factors.
This presentation deals with enforcement and international cooperation to combat corruption.
High-profile data breaches, subsequent litigation and swiftly changing global regulations have management teams and directors confused and concerned about their best path forward. This interactive session, led by in-the-trench legal practitioners, will walk attendees through a mock risk analysis and subsequent recommendations report to senior management. The panel will then create an Information Management Committee tasked with integrating disparate functions of records retention, privacy, information security, litigation and business intelligence. Attendees will walk away with an Information Governance Maturity Analysis Guide, the Top 10 Critical Cyber Considerations for Global Companies and Key Disclosure Considerations in Risk Reporting to Senior Management.
For many years, the United States drove global anti-corruption efforts through vigorous enforcement of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. More recently, other jurisdictions have begun to assert themselves in the anti-corruption arena. Brazil joined those countries in 2014 by enacting a tough new anti-corruption law. This program will cover the main aspects addressed in the new law such as the penalties imposed, incentives for companies to establish and enforce effective compliance programs, leniency provisions and incentives for companies to self-report violations, impact on multinational companies doing business in Brazil and how they can prepare their existing compliance programs, impact on companies conducting internal investigations in Brazil and other relevant aspects.
This article presents the views and observations of leading anti-corruption practitioners in jurisdictions spanning every region of the globe.
This is an anti-corruption summary of information discussed in the 2014 ACC Annual Meeting Session 105: Keep Your Executives Out of Jail and Avoid Massive Fines: Responding to the New Age of Worldwide Anti-Corruption Legislation.
