FCPA and Mergers – Riskpro Play a significant role
What happens when a company walks away from a deal due to potential M&A issues. One of the highest-profile cases to date involves Titan Corp., whose 2003 deal with would-be buyer Lockheed Martin Corp. fell through when Lockheed discovered during due diligence that questionable payments had been made to foreign officials, and Titan failed to resolve the matter in a timely fashion. Penalties assessed against Titan totaled nearly $29 million — one of the largest fine ever slapped on a company in an FCPA case. With M&A activity on an upswing, especially in Asia, FCPA’s significance cannot be understated. FCPA as deal-breaker would cover the issues that go into dealing with FCPA issues in the M&A sphere.
