Set forth below are the topics discussed this week on FCPA Professor.

Even though the decision was a resounding victory for Murta, this post highlights the human element of FCPA individual prosecutions.
Regarding individual FCPA prosecutions, this post highlights how a meaningful percentage of such actions slumber.
As discussed here, the First Circuit recently concluded in a whistleblower retaliation case that the FCPA is not a “rule or regulation” of the SEC.
