This chart identifies the number of FCPA Matters initiated per year that allege bribery schemes involving third-party intermediaries such as agents, consultants, or contractors. Data is pulled by FCPA Matter in order to avoid double counting that may otherwise occur when the same or affiliated corporate entities are sued in separate Enforcement Actions within a single Matter based on the same underlying misconduct. Data is aggregated by filing date, not date of resolution. The data used to generate this graphic were culled from publicly available documents filed in connection with the Enforcement Actions, and may not reflect all third-party intermediaries involved in the bribery scheme. See About Us - Datasets for definitions of "Enforcement Action" and "FCPA Matter."
This chart identifies the types of third-party intermediaries involved in bribery schemes alleged in FCPA Matters. Each unique type of intermediary is counted only once per Matter, even if the same intermediary is involved in multiple different transactions or several intermediaries of the same type are implicated in the bribery scheme. The data used to generate this graphic were culled from publicly available documents filed in connection with the Enforcement Actions, and may not reflect all third-party intermediaries involved in the improper conduct.
