Everything Old is New Again - The John Deere FCPA Enforcement Action

  • サマリー

  • The award winning, Compliance into the Weeds is the only weekly podcast which takes a deep dive into a compliance related topic, literally going into the weeds to more fully explore a subject. Looking for some hard-hitting insights on compliance? Look no further than Compliance into the Weeds! In this episode Tom Fox and Matt Kelly take a deep dive into the recent Securities and Exchange Commission FCPA enforcement action involving John Deere. The case centers on a $10 million civil penalty imposed by the SEC for bribery activities in the Thailand office of a newly acquired subsidiary, Wirtgen Group. This transgression spanned from 2017 to 2020, and despite having a code of business conduct, Wirtgen employees flouted rules by falsifying expenses, entertaining government officials at massage parlors, and engaging in a luxury sightseeing tour under the guise of a factory visit. A critical issue was John Deere's delayed integration of Wirtgen into its compliance program, leading to internal control lapses and obvious red flags in expense reports. Although Deere has since taken significant remedial actions, including firing culpable employees and enhancing its compliance and internal audit programs, the situation underscores persistent compliance challenges even for large, sophisticated firms. This episode serves as a reminder of the essential compliance lessons from past decades that firms must steadfastly adhere to.
