It also discusses the operational realities that compliance practitioners must take into account, the degree of regulations and the extent of government interaction that exist in the design of a company's internal controls. This report deconstructs the hotly debate topic of internal controls by taking a closer look at the law itself and how it fits as a "critical component" of a best practices anti-corruption program.
