Global Bribery and Corruption: Impact on Canadian Businesses

On July 1, 2011, the new Bribery Act 2010 came into effect in the UK, presenting many Canadian commercial organizations with new risks and challenges. The legislation can extend to any company which carries on any part of a business in the UK, regardless of where the company was incorporated. Canadian businesses with a connection to the UK need to carefully consider their existing anti-bribery procedures and whether their controls are up to the task.
