Regulating Corporate Bribery in International Business - Nicholas Lord - Bog

This book is about the regulation of corporations that use bribery in international commerce to win or maintain overseas business contracts and interests. The author argues that despite significant cultural differences between the jurisdictions, UK and German anti-corruption authorities face procedural, evidential, legal, financial and structural difficulties that are leading to convergence in prosecution policies. Although self-regulatory and hybrid mechanisms are aiding the response and gaining some level of regulation, the default position is one of accommodation by state agencies, even where the will to enforce the law is high.
