Peter Herbel, Beat Hess and Massimo Mantovani on the need for a balance between anti-bribery enforcement and unfairly duplicated proceedings
Corruption is an impediment to international business, to fair competition and to sustainable global development. Violations of anti-bribery laws must be investigated and prosecuted, and appropriate sanctions should be levied against government officials as well as individuals and entities found to have made improper payments to government officials. At the same time, overlapping enforcement of anti-bribery laws by regulators in multiple jurisdictions should not unfairly burden or penalise corporations.
