Baker McKenzie provides a comprehensive compliance offering that includes coverage of internal investigations and associated criminal proceedings, risk assessments around clients’ exposure to fraud and corruption charges under criminal and administrative law, corporate compliance programme design and implementation, and compliance training. Cross-border matters are a particularly active area of work for the practice, which can draw on the expertise of the global network of its parent firm to cover international regulations, such as the US Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and UK Bribery Act, for Argentine clients. The practice is led by well-known life sciences lawyer Maria Vanina Caniza, who also has a strong record in compliance and investigations work; and criminal law veteran Fernando Goldaracena, an expert in anti-corruption and compliance matters, as well as financial and cybersecurity crime. Nicolas Servente, who focuses on litigation and internal investigations, is the main contact at the associate level.
