Episode 10: Proposed changes to the criminal liability of companies in the UK and why they matter to you
In our tenth episode, Francesca Bonner-Evans (Managing Associate) is joined by Alison Saunders (Consultant) and Jane Larner (Counsel), all from our Litigation, Arbitration and Investigations Practice in London. They consider some of the proposals in the current Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Bill, including the introduction of a corporate failure to prevent fraud offence and the reframing of principles behind corporate criminal liability which will make it easier to prosecute companies for wrongdoing. They discuss implications for organisations operating in the UK and share thoughts on what businesses should be doing now to prepare.
