Rob Winner quoted by Corporate Secretary, “JVs: making a case for active due diligence and continuous monitoring”

Rob Winner was quoted in a June 29 story from Corporate Secretary on how entering into a JV requires companies to conduct effective due diligence in order to screen for the right JV partner, mitigate reputational risk and expose any legal liabilities, while also establishing compliance monitoring programs that will prevent potential violations of the FCPA, the UK Bribery Act and other regulations. Winner said knowing your partner is now the primary concern for firms considering entering into a JV. The capital, personnel and resources committed to the JV, the corporate culture, and the business plans all have to be aligned before going forward with your JV partner, he says.
