Compliance Week Reports on the "Long-Arm" of the FCPA

Today's Compliance Week contains a story on the the broad reach of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act to companies located in the U.K. and other countries in Europe.

The article notes that "the long arm of U.S. regulatory compliance is now reaching ever more deeply into overseas corporations—even, when necessary, reaching over the shoulder of local regulators not enforcing their own standards to U.S. liking."
