Frances McLeod joins panel for "the Dark Side of International Business" to discuss real-world FCPA experience

April 4, 2016

Frances McLeod, founding partner of Forensic Risk Alliance, has been invited to join the panel for "A Journey to the Dark Side of International Business and Steps to Protect Your Organization", an event being held next month on the campus at George Washington University.

The event, hosted by Virginia-Washington, DC District Export Council, GW-CIBER, Women's Bar Association of the District of Columbia, and Association of Women in International Trade, will be led by Keynote Presenter Richard Bistrong, CEO of Front-Line Anti-Bribery LLC.

Hear multiple perspectives on a real-world story of violating the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act ("FCPA"), including from the front-lines of international business, to cooperation with law enforcement, and incarceration. Listen to business, legal and compliance leaders as they reflect on this real-life crucible and what lessons it might offer in today's commercial settings, especially where business opportunities become more commonplace in higher risk markets.

Frances will be joined on the panel by James Koukios of Morrison & Foerster, LLP, and Jonathan Drummer of Barrick Gold Corp. Evelyn Suarez of The Suarez Firm will moderate the event.

The event will take place on May 4th. For more information, visit http://business.gwu.edu/events/anti-corruption/
