Scott Balber and Pamela Terry have contributed to Global Investigations Review’s The Guide to International Enforcement of Securities Laws with a chapter entitled “Strategic Considerations in Cross-Border Investigations”.
The chapter offers insight into how to navigate the modern complexities of cross-border securities investigations, in particular those involving the US Securities and Exchange Commission and the Department of Justice. The chapter covers strategic considerations, the basics of coordination among international regulators, management of evidence production to various international standards, protection against breach of data privacy and other laws in multiple jurisdictions, and protecting jurisdictional defences in a country while responding to regulatory inquiries.
An extract from the first edition of The Guide to International Enforcement of the Securities Laws, comprising Scott and Pamela’s contribution, is available to download as a PDF here. The full publication is available at this link.
