Event Summary
Cooperation between regulators and law enforcement authorities across borders has become increasingly common in recent years. This trend has resulted in more complex and large-scale cross-border investigations with significant financial and collateral consequences for companies across many jurisdictions. Companies caught in the cross-hairs of such investigations must navigate foreign data protection and data privacy laws, language and cultural barriers in conducting interviews, and potentially conflicting cooperation obligations with regulators. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic has shaken up how cross-border internal and government investigations are conducted, from how evidence is collected, to how interviews are taken, to how regulators cooperate.
