  • Beschreibung: <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Management traditionally tries to increase shareholder wealth with M&amp;A deals. But there are risks. These days, the buyer's due diligence should be especially cautious about possible bribery existing in a target company. So the authors discuss some important new guidelines issued by the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). These guidelines cover procedures to avoid liability and reduce the risk of civil and criminal action with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA). © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.</jats:p>
