Buchanan's White Collar Defense, Compliance &
Investigations provided an update on new Department of Justice
policies on corporate criminal enforcement and how recent changes
can and will impact businesses.
In September of 2022, the DOJ announced a comprehensive overhaul of
its corporate criminal enforcement policies, which are designed to
encourage cooperation with the DOJ and the establishment of
effective compliance programs to detect and deter criminal conduct
within an organization. Over the past few months, entities within
the DOJ have enacted their own policies to give effect to the
Department-wide overhaul. As a result of these changes, companies
have greater opportunity to achieve a favorable resolution with the
DOJ when they voluntarily self-disclose misconduct and cooperate
with the government's investigation.
