Introduction
Russian corporate anti-corruption enforcement has recently become a hot topic for many international companies operating in Russia as well as for Russian corporations with an international footprint.
The increasing interest in this area has been driven by a number of factors.
Firstly, companies now have experience implementing the anticorruption standards of foreign anti-corruption law, especially the US Foreign Corrupt Practices Act 1977 and the UK Bribery Act 2010.
The active extra-territorial application of these laws has been effective in making companies extremely attentive to observing their requirements.
