Thomas Treutler, partner and managing director of Tilleke & Gibbins’ two offices in Vietnam, and Chuyen Hong Huu Le, an attorney-at-law in the firm’s corporate and commercial group in Ho Chi Minh City, have drawn on their well-versed understanding of anti-bribery and corruption law to provide a Vietnam report for Lex Mundi’s Anticorruption Compliance Guide . Among other things, their report provides great detail on Vietnam’s 2017 Penal Code’s anticorruption provisions. 

Capitalizing on its network of independent firms around the world, Lex Mundi’s Anticorruption Compliance Guide  provides local insight on anti-bribery and corruption regimes across 78 jurisdictions globally. Each jurisdiction is divided into an individual report following a question and answer format.

In addition to contributing the Vietnam report for the guide, Tilleke & Gibbins’ legal professionals also supplied the responses for the reports covering Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, and Thailand.
