The award winning, Compliance into the Weeds is the only weekly podcast which takes a deep dive into a compliance-related topic, literally going into the weeds to more fully explore a subject. Looking for some hard-hitting insights on compliance? Look no further than Compliance into the Weeds! In this episode, Tom Fox and Matt Kelly take a deep dive into the recently announced Department of Justice (DOJ) Whistleblower Incentive Program. Last week, the DOJ announced a whistleblower pilot program, offering monetary rewards to whistleblowers who report corporate misconduct. Whistleblowers can receive up to 30% of the net proceeds of a settlement resulting from their tip. The program covers various types of corporate crime, including bribery, healthcare fraud, and Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) violations. This program puts pressure on compliance programs to quickly investigate and address reported misconduct. It also raises questions about how whistleblowers will be rewarded in cases where there is a declination or non-prosecution agreement. The SEC case involving a whistleblower award highlights the importance of handling whistleblower reports effectively.
