13th Annual Business Ethics & Anti-Corruption Compliance in CEE & SEE

Gain practical insights on Anti-Bribery Compliance Programs, Third Party Due Diligence and Mitigating Corruption Risks in CEE & SEE

21 Sep 2023 to 22 Sep 2023 | Prague, Czech Republic

overview

Acquiring new companies, expanding into new markets, high employee turnover or engaging third parties, sales agents and distributors can expose a business to significant regulatory risk. Recent research across Europe has shown that companies will be increasingly exposed to Fraud & Corruption in 2023. One of the key drivers for this will be the current economic conditions.

With recent news of bribery investigations in Germany, Czech, Romania, Poland, Austria and other countries in CEE, Corporate Fraud and Corruption is taking centre stage in Europe. While many multinational companies have Ethics & Anti-Corruption compliance programs, they may always not be effective especially when operating in less transparent jurisdictions.

In this context GCM Parker is proud to present its 2 day unique conference in Prague: 13th Annual Business Ethics Anti-Corruption Compliance Strategies in CEE, SEE & CIS.
