Anti-Corruption Principles and Legislation Sample Clauses

Anti-Corruption Principles and Legislation. The OECD and the OECD Convention exist to combat bribery of foreign public officials in international business transactions. The OECD Convention requires contracting states to enact legislation relating to combating bribery of foreign public officials in international business transactions. Such legislation has been passed in the United States as the FCPA. The Anti-Corruption Laws and Principles prohibit the corrupt payment, offer, promise, or authorization of the payment or transfer of anything of value or any benefit, directly or indirectly, to any Government Official, or to any other person while knowing that all or some portion of the payment, thing of value, or benefit will be offered, given, promised, or passed on to a Government Official. Certain of the Anti-Corruption Laws and Principles also prohibit commercial bribery (i.e., the payment or transfer of anything of value, any benefit, or any advantage, directly or indirectly, to any private person with the intention to improperly obtain or retain business or any business advantage or to improperly influence the recipient’s behavior).
