摘要
1976年，美国证券交易委员会(SEC)发布了开创性的《证券交易委员会关于可疑和非法公司支付和行为的报告》，该报告将腐败和非法公司支付的问题描述为“严重而普遍”。1977年颁布的《反海外腐败法》(Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977)禁止为获得或保持业务而向外国官员贿赂金钱或任何有价值的东西。《反海外腐败法》仍然是世界上唯一真正的反贿赂试金石，后续颁布的法律可以与之进行文本比较。遵守《反海外腐败法》的指令仍然是企业合规中最突出的问题之一。司法部对一个组织进行调查的后果可能是实质性的，而且会转移人们的注意力，和解可能代价高昂，起诉可能会造成严重后果。
In 1976, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued its groundbreaking Report of the Securities and Exchange Commission on Questionable and Illegal Corporate Payments and Practices, which characterized the problem of corrupt and illegal corporate payments as “serious and widespread.” Enacted in 1977, the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 (FCPA) prohibits corrupt payments of money or anything of value to foreign officials in order to obtain or retain business. The FCPA continues to serve as the world’s only true anti-bribery touchstone against which subsequent enactments can be compared textually. Adherence to the directives of the FCPA continues as one of the most prominent issues in corporate compliance. The consequences of a DOJ investigation for an organization can be substantial and attention-diverting, a settlement can be costly, and an indictment can be crippling.
