'This is a well-written deeply thought out book. The authors display a great familiarity with the subject and with the issues and have written an informative and broad-based description of large scale corruption in modern commerce and the efforts to combat it.' John W. Moscow, Partner, Baker Hostetler
'The Bribery Act 2010 will revolutionise the law of England and Wales in relation to bribery and corruption. It will set new standards for businesses operating both in the UK and overseas and pose serious challenges which must be faced or risk a criminal prosecution. This book is a comprehensive guide through the new legislation, putting it in context and giving practical advice to people in business and those that advise them. The key to avoiding problems is to have in place 'adequate procedures'; this book contains all that corporates need to know to meet the new requirements and to deal with law enforcement if the worst happens. This is the first book of its kind and should be the first port of call for all corporates large and small and wherever they conduct business.' Rosalind Wright, Director, Serious Fraud Office, 1997 2003
'Anyone concerned about the actualities of risk, whether in terms of exposure to the harm that bribery causes or perhaps more significantly in terms of management, to the legal, regulatory and reputational risks that arise as a result of non-compliance, will find this work of real and practical assistance. The authors present a dynamic discussion of corruption viewed from several perspectives, including that of the corporate world and those engaged in enforcement. The issues are complex and often defy the simple solutions proffered by more simplistic commentators. This work not only informs but provides much needed guidance and a good bit of practical advice.' Professor Barry Rider, Counsel, BryanCave
'Coming on the heels of the enactment of the UK Bribery Act, Nick Kochan and Robin Goodyear have provided a timely and needed contribution to the growing field of corruption studies. This treatise is an essential resource for anyone seeking to understand
not only how to comply with the UK Bribery Act, the FCPA, or other anticorruption laws, but also why governments have turned anticorruption enforcement from an enforcement backwater into the biggest risk-management concern of any multinational
concern.' Gregory Husisian, Counsel, Foley & Lardner LLP
