"One of the great strengths of this book is the way the authors
blend good practical legal advice, genuine insight about the
attitude and approach of the authorities in the UK, and
off-the-shelf policies to help corporate bodies navigate their way
through these often difficult waters... The game has changed and
those who ignore the practical advice offered in this book do so at
their own peril." Sir Keir Starmer KCB QC, Director of Public
Prosecutions 2008-13 (from the foreword to the book) Bribery: A
Compliance Handbook is a practical guide to regulation in relation
to corrupt practices. The book considers the safeguards and
practical measures that organisations should put in place to
prevent prosecution or regulatory action. It is a compliance text
focussing on the requisite measures to be put into place by company
directors and compliance officers to avoid liability. This book is
a reference point for those concerned with regulation of
potentially corrupt activities. It covers the current bribery
legislation in the UK and the domestic and international context
within which it was enacted and reviews each of the principal
offences and considers some case studies and issues that affect
particular sectors. The emphasis of the book is on preventative
matters rather than defending subsequent prosecutions and will
appeal not just to lawyers, but to compliance officers, non
executive directors and others who are required to be aware of the
provisions. Bribery: A Compliance Handbook is essential reading for
in-house and private practice lawyers advising clients in this area
and for compliance officers or Board members, who post Bribery Act
are ever more likely to be engaged with the difficult practical
issues the new legislation gives rise to. Contents: 1 Introduction;
