11/2/20: The UK’s Serious Fraud Office (SFO) has released a chapter from its handbook that, according to the agency, “… offers comprehensive guidance on how we approach Deferred Prosecution Agreements (DPAs), and how we engage with companies where a DPA is a prospective outcome.” Lisa Osodsky, director of the SFO, explained that the guidance is the outcome of six years’ work to establish best practice and transparency for what the SFO expects of companies seeking to resolve issues through a DFA settlement.
