FCPA Prosecutions & Trends

The FCPA is emblematic of the serious problem of overcriminalization. While it seeks to prevent and redress serious misconduct, its language and application have led to unintended consequences.

Provided below are resources on FCPA prosecution trends and case pages containing pleadings and summaries for certain major FCPA prosecutions.
