How FEPA Strengthens Global Anti-Bribery Laws
The Foreign Extortion Prevention Act (FEPA) complements existing anti-corruption laws like the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and the Bribery Act by targeting the “demand side” of corruption. It criminalizes foreign officials who request or receive bribes from U.S. companies. This development strengthens corporate compliance obligations and reinforces global accountability. With stricter enforcement and rising penalties, organizations must stay proactive in preventing bribery and corruption risks. The FEPA represents a key milestone in promoting fairness and transparency in international business practices.
