Martin Šolc for Hospodářské noviny’s Leaders Voice column: Combating corruption? We seem to like doing things our way

Martin Šolc, a partner at KSB, recently published his reflections on the highly publicized but rather unsuccessful fight against corruption in Hospodářské noviny’s Leaders Voice column on 2 September 2011.

Martin believes it is unfortunate that we have yet to be inspired by some of the positive examples abroad, such as the FCPA ­– the US anti-corruption law – or the British Bribery Act adopted last year. He also points out that the politically satisfying ban on bearer shares fails to actually resolve anything of substance. However, he sees hope in the planned introduction of criminal liability for corporations.
