By any measure, 2017 was a transformative year in Latin America’s ethics and compliance landscape. A confluence of sustained high-profile scandals, national commitments to the OECD’s anti-bribery convention and increasing expertise and cooperation amongst the hemisphere’s enforcement agencies appears to have matured into a genuine shift in perception regarding the private sector’s role in combating corruption. In a guest article, Ricardo Cabral, compliance manager at General Motors Mercosur, and Carlos André Galante Grover, a litigiation associate at Richards Kibbe & Orbe, discuss how the compliance landscape in Latin America has shifted and what regional and local businesses have done to meet the unique confluence of challenges that is emerging.
