After the audit, we reviewed relevant interview notes to identify potential red flags and areas for compliance enhancement.
  • Representing a world-leading manufacturer in a USD 200+ million global fraud case involving former employees in the company’s Thai operations.

  • Prepared anti-corruption, anti-money laundering, and unfair competition compliance policies for a multinational corporation with operations in over 100 countries, including countries with extraterritorial anti-corruption laws such as the FCPA. We also advised on the implementation of our client’s compliance program in Thailand, which involved tailoring our client’s global compliance concerns to the local Thai jurisdiction.
  • Worked with a leading multinational law firm, and acted as local counsel on an internal corporate anti-corruption investigation at the Thai subsidiary of a global beverage manufacturer.
