INTRODUCTION

I am pleased to share with you the latest edition of our FCPA & Anti-Bribery Alert.

This Alert begins with a short overview of Trends & Lessons (Chapter 1), and then discusses select international Focus Issues (Chapter 2). For example, the Focus on U.S. Enforcement Guidance discusses the Yates Memorandum and the new FCPA Pilot Program, while the Focus on Brazil surveys the status of Operation Car Wash and other Brazilian anti-corruption investigations, which have already resulted in over 1,000 separate legal proceedings against both individuals and companies, and which continues to unfold. The Focus on China describes Chinese efforts to inspect SOEs and encourage whistleblowers, provides an update on Operation Fox Hunt and Operation Sky Net, and explores legislative and regulatory developments. The Focus on Norway explores Norwegian anti-corruption enforcement developments, including ØKOKRIM enforcement actions.

Prediction Markets — Legitimate Trading Or Gambling?

The rapid expansion of online prediction markets has created a regulatory gray area where consumers can effectively wager on sporting events even in states that prohibit traditional sports betting.
