  • Mike Huneke’s Top 5 Takeaways from the 2024 ECCP

    Mike Huneke’s Top 5 Takeaways from the 2024 ECCP
    Oct 21 2024
    Welcome to the Hughes Hubbard Anti-Corruption & Internal Investigations Practice Group’s podcast All Things Investigation. In this podcast, host Tom Fox is joined Mike Huneke as we explore the recently released 2024 ECCP. In this discussion, Tom and the speaker examine the extent to which the government issues detailed guidance, advice, and settlement documents in areas of law like the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA). The conversation reflects on historical perspectives, including a statement by an SEC commissioner from the 1980s who compared issuing guidance on the FCPA to advising on committing murders. The dialogue also touches on lessons from the Enron collapse and the dissolution of Arthur Andersen, noting the government's cautious approach to putting corporations, employees, and shareholders at risk. The speaker argues that while this guidance can be seen as helping companies avoid misconduct, ignoring or rejecting it can lead to significant legal trouble.
