7 ACCEPTANCE OF BRIBERY
8 At one time, bribes to foreign public officias were tax deductible (Prior to 1996) In the remaining countries bribes to foreign public officials were still as deductible as any other business expense, at least in principle. In practice, a deduction for a bribe was often disallowed because of insufficient documentation to support the fact that the expense was a necessary part of the transaction in question. Moreover, the deductibility of bribes to foreign officials was generally conditioned upon disclosing the identity of the recipient to the tax authorities, which taxpayers are naturally reluctant to do. oecd Observer: Writing off tax deductibility: The tax deductibility of bribes is a practice which the Convention has made easier to abolish.

12 IMPORTANCE OF LOCAL AND LOCALIZED TRAINING
13 Orthofix case arising out of payments made by Mexican Subsidiary to Social Security System use of local language is essential to FCPA compliance. FCPA compliance trainings must be conducted in local languages to have an impact. FCPA policies must be translated into local languages, and done so correctly. In the settlement, the SEC did not mince its words: Orthofix did not have an effective FCPA compliance policy or FCPA related training because it distributed codes of ethics and conducted anti bribery training only in English, and it was unlikely that [the subsidiary s] employees understood them. Comments taken from : local language essential to effectivefcpa compliance
