With a rich background in the oil and gas industry, including a stint as the head of anti-corruption at BP, Sam has a unique perspective on the UK's Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act and its role in enhancing corporate transparency and accountability. He believes that the Act is a significant development, particularly in its expansion of liability to senior managers and the introduction of a new failure to prevent fraud. These changes, he argues, necessitate a reevaluation and adaptation of companies' compliance programs to safeguard against potential offenses.
