Combating Corruption in Mexico: What's Happening With Mexico

Combating Corruption in Mexico: What’s Happening with Mexico’s National Anti-Corruption System?

Description: 
The National Anti-Corruption System (Sistema Nacional Anticorrupción, SNA) was enacted to develop a tougher and more comprehensive approach to fighting corruption.  Nearly five years after this law’s passage, however, corruption remains one of the most significant issues facing Mexico, which continues receiving low marks in Transparency International’s Corruption Perceptions Index. This panel of experts from Mexico and the United States will discuss what, if any, effect the SNA has had on Mexico’s business culture; what the AMLO administration has been doing to fight against public sector corruption; and what the Biden Administration’s approach to the Foreign Corruption Practices Act means for international businesses operating in Mexico and Mexican companies with ties to the United States and its capital markets.

For the health and safety of our community and as part of New York City’s Key to NYC program, as of September 7, 2021 all visitors to the New York City Bar are required to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19. At the time of your visit, in order to enter the City Bar, you will be required to show proof that you are at least 14 days past your final dose of a vaccine approved by the Food and Drug Administration or the World Health Organization, in combination with a matching photo ID. Proof of vaccination may include a valid paper vaccination record, a photo of a valid vaccination record, the NYC COVID Safe App, or the New York State Excelsior Pass.   Visitors who are under 12 years old and therefore ineligible for vaccination are exempt from the requirement, but must wear a mask and be accompanied by a vaccinated adult.
