The UK’s Serious Fraud Office has had a somewhat bumpy ride recently although many people believe the outlook for the agency is positive. In this issue of GIR, SFO Director David Green discusses the authority’s renewed vision; comparisons to US corporate prosecutions; the arrival of DPAs; and the use of external counsel in the Victor Dahdaleh trial.
GIR also travelled to Amsterdam to visit some of the city’s leading investigations lawyers. With two major Dutch companies – SBM Offshore and Ballast Nedam – in the limelight recently, not to mention problems for Amsterdam-based auditor KPMG, lawyers there have seen a surge in this area of work.
We also find out why some Dutch lawyers are advising their clients that self-disclosing corruption issues in the Netherlands may not be quite as barmy as it sounds.
