Blocking statutes are laws that govern what information can travel out of a given country. They can create conflicts when a company faces an investigation in the U.S. where prosecutors expect the company to produce all relevant evidence. A recent webinar hosted by Gibson Dunn provided a multinational perspective on the blocking statutes of France, Switzerland and China; explained how U.S. authorities and courts handle these statutes; and suggested five tips for companies on how to deal with them. This article summarizes the key takeaways. See “How Internal Investigations Can Let the Compliance Team Shine” (Jan. 29, 2025).
