For many years, lawyers who specialized in anti-bribery and corruption (ABAC) were slowly putting themselves out of a job by helping to change global attitudes toward graft, but the tides have changed and the future of ABAC compliance and enforcement is less clear. In this guest article, William Semins, a partner at K&L Gates, discusses how the landscape has shifted over the last two decades, how the jobs of ABAC experts have changed in response and what the future might hold for those in the field. See this two-part series on the FCPA Executive Order: “The Future of U.S. Enforcement” (Mar. 12, 2025), and “Staying the Course in the Face of Continued Risk” (Mar. 26, 2025).
