FCPA Investigations

IGI delivers sophisticated and specific expertise to supplement large law firms’ investigations into discrete incidents related to or entities involved in potential violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA). In addition, IGI regularly works for companies performing internal investigations on the practices of overseas subsidiaries, agents, and vendors. IGI gathers information on individuals and companies who may be conduits for corruption and provides clients with recommendations regarding remedial measures.

IGI helps clients identify potential violations – including how agents and third-parties may be creating potential exposure – and recommendations on steps to remedy issues and implement compliance measures.

With IGI’s timely support, clients can respond to and cooperate with regulatory bodies, reducing financial penalties and other adverse consequences.

IGI’s FCPA Investigations services include:

On-the-Ground Investigations

Every country in which IGI operates presents unique challenges. The availability of methods for accessing public records, data protection laws, and countless other factors can vary markedly from nation to nation. IGI’s network of investigators, sources, and affiliates affords clients the advantage of on-site investigators who not only develop the required information but also evaluate that information within the political, social, and economic context of a particular county – while always ensuring compliance with the laws of the jurisdiction in question, as well as the rules of professional responsibility and ethics.

By gathering intelligence and providing strategic analysis of potential FCPA issues, IGI helps clients determine the best path forward. IGI’s FCPA investigative team includes forensic accountants, former intelligence analysts, senior law enforcement personnel, and former federal prosecutors with experience investigating and prosecuting international financial crimes and public integrity cases.
