REGULATORY INVESTIGATIONS
Regulators worldwide have stepped up their scrutiny of
corporations’ domestic
and overseas operations and business development
efforts, with an invigorated
focus on bribery, kickbacks, anti-competitive behavior
and “pay-to-play” schemes
involving governments.
Recent cases and record fines for violations of the
Foreign Corrupt Practices Act
(FCPA) – and new regulatory regimes including the UK
Bribery Act – have
highlighted that corruption exposure continues to be a
major risk for international
businesses. H.F.C’s unmatched investigative capabilities
for independence and
integrity make us uniquely qualified for resolving
regulatory concerns
What sets
H.F.C apart is our broad range of services, global
resources, the backgrounds and experience of our
professionals, and our ability to assist clients by
independently identifying the salient facts of a matter,
enabling our clients to address and resolve sensitive,
complex regulatory problems. Working with clients and
their counsel in a multitude of industries and
geographies, H.F.C conducts investigations into alleged
violations of laws, allegations of bribery and financial
mismanagement including kickbacks, money laundering,
internal control lapses and other financial
improprieties
Combining the skills of our traditional investigators
with forensic accountants and electronic discovery and
computer forensics teams, H.F.C’s independent fact
finding allows legal counsel to advocate from a
perspective that is separate from the investigative
process
