Global Legislation

The Network is dedicated to providing insight into complex issues, such as legislation surrounding data privacy and corporate governance. This resource was designed to provide information about regulations and legislation from around the globe that may affect your compliance program.

Regulatory legislation in the US and UK – specifically, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the Dodd-Frank Act, the FCPA, and UK Bribery Act – have made it essential for organizations to stay at the top of their compliance games. These regulations mandate that organizations both public and private, local and international, implement policies and procedures to safeguard both themselves and their stakeholders.

Note that the information and Web links here are provided as a service to our hotline clients who want an introduction to some of the laws and regulations around the world that affect hotlines. The Network is not a law firm and does not give legal advice. We recommend that you seek the advice of counsel in the appropriate area before implementing a hotline.
