4th Marval Annual Summit on Compliance, Anti-Corruption and Investigations

On September 21, 2021, the firm hosted the 4th edition of the Marval Annual Summit on Compliance, Anti-Corruption and Investigations —a leading Compliance event in Latin America featuring world-class experts talking about challenges, developments and trends.

This event —which is already a regional subject-specific milestone—, brought together more than 1600 participants from over 40 countries throughout a full day in which over 20 world-class speakers shared their experience in challenges, developments and trends in compliance, anti-corruption and investigations.

The conference was led by Gustavo Morales Oliver, Head of the Compliance, Anti-Corruption and Investigations Department at Marval O'Farrell Mairal and brought together more than 20 local, regional, and global leaders, reaffirming itself as one of the most relevant international conferences on the subject.

About this 4th edition, Morales Oliver said: “The purpose of the conference is still to share with the audience the experience we gain working in these kinds of cases and the knowledge that world-class experts have acquired over the years.”

Among other significant matters, the speakers addressed the Registry of Integrity and Transparency for Legal Entities in Argentina, Globant and Mercado Libre referents analysed in-house challenges when implementing cross-border compliance programs, experts provided details about the FIFA case, how to successfully overcome penalties and convictions in this field, and discussed compliance trends and developments in Brazil and Mexico, as well as AML and fraud in Europe and the Americas.

In addition, officials and former officials of the United States Department of Justice, the SEC and the FBI discussed developments and trends in anti-corruption in the USA and abroad, and representatives of Transparency International and The World Bank Group discussed covid19-related global corruption.
