On June 9, 2025, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) issued new guidelines implementing Executive Order 14209, which temporarily halted new Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) investigations and required a review of current cases. These new guidelines reflect a shift in FCPA enforcement toward cases that directly impact U.S. national security, harm American economic competitiveness, involve transnational criminal threats or include significant criminal conduct by individuals. Cases lacking these elements will be deprioritized.
