NIETZER&HÄUSLER ist Mitglied in der Business Law Section der American Bar Association, und als solches möchten wir auf einen sehr guten Überblick in The Business Lawyer, Vol.66, Nov. 2010 von Paul E.McGreal hinweisen über aktuelle Entwicklungen im Bereich Corporate Compliance, auch lesenswert im Hinblick auf Entwicklungen im Deutschland. Hier der Artikel: TBL Survey Compliance
Zusammenfassung: This survey summarizes significant legal developments from the last year regarding corporate compliance and ethics programs, which consist of an organization’s code of conduct, policies, and procedures designed to achieve compliance with applicable legal regulations and internal ethical standards. 2 For an overview and introduction to the subject, as well as updates from prior years, please see the prior surveys. 3 This update assumes familiarity with the background and overview discussed there. As in past surveys, Part I reviews developments regarding the United States Sentencing Guidelines for the sentencing of organizations (the “Guidelines”); 4 Part II reviews signifi cant regulatory developments; and Part III reviews significant case law developments. And in recognition of the increasingly global nature of compliance, this survey adds a Part IV devoted to significant international developments.
