DOJ enforcers sometimes apply a generous definition of a U.S. nexus when prosecuting international corruption and fraud cases, giving new meaning to the long arm of the law. At a panel discussion during the New York City Bar Association’s White Collar Crime Institute, an Eastern District of New York prosecutor and defense counsel discussed how the DOJ and courts view the extraterritorial reach of U.S. fraud and corruption laws. This article summarizes their insights. See “DOJ’s Long Arm Over Latin America: Recent Trends and Future Risks From Extraterritorial Application of U.S. Laws” (Sep. 30, 2020).
