Course Overview
The Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act 2023 has introduced a game-changing "failure to prevent fraud" offence which came into effect on 1st September 2025 and puts UK organisations directly in the firing line. This isn't just another compliance box to tick – it's a fundamental shift that makes large organisations criminally liable when their people commit fraud, even without their knowledge.
Master the UK's New Corporate Criminal Offence Law with our course created in collaboration with Jonathan Chibafa, Founder & Chief Legal Officer of Forge ESG (highly respected barrister and compliance expert who has held senior in-house legal and compliance roles at Fortune 500 companies), in conjunction with Sara Lawson KC of Mayfair Place Chambers and Forge ESG.
Sara is well placed to advise companies on compliance requirements in respect of the implementation of the FTPF offence as she was a key part of the teams reviewing Home Office Guidance on ECCTA 2023 (the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act) and SFO corporate guidance.
