Welcome to the fifth edition of Business ethics and anti-corruption world. As with our previous issues, we aim to highlight Norton Rose Fulbright’s global reach through analysis and reflection of key updates and events related to business ethics, anti-corruption and business and human rights developments.
Our business ethics and anti-corruption practice helps clients to navigate national and international anti-corruption, regulatory and compliance issues and investigations wherever they arise. We advise corporates, financial institutions and senior executives extensively on the implications of international business ethics and anti-corruption best practice standards, wider developments in the legislative and corporate landscape, and in relation to internal and government-led investigations.
