Canadian Anti Corruption Law And Compliance

"As Canada continues to expand its corporate presence overseas, so too, has the need to legislate and enforce anti-corruption rules against the bribery of foreign officials by Canadian companies and their officers. Until now, there has been no legal textbook that discusses anti-corruption laws in Canada in such an in-depth and comprehensive manner. This book helps lawyers and in-house counsel understand the gravity of these laws: infringement can result in prosecution, hefty fines and even imprisonment. Written in an informative and yet readable manner, this book focuses on relevant sections of the Corruption of Foreign Public Officials Act (CFPOA), and how to ensure compliance. It offers a detailed section-by-section review of the legislation, so that lawyers will know how to advise their clients in staying clear of CFPOA offences."--pub. desc.
