At the 36th Annual American Bar Association National Institute on White Collar Conference on October 28, 2021, Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco announced significant changes to Department of Justice policies on corporate criminal enforcement, including the use of monitors, review of prior misconduct, and cooperation. As Monaco stated, “this is a start — and not the end — of this administration’s actions to better combat corporate crime.” These changes and the Administration’s formation of a Corporate Crime Advisory Group signal a shift in DOJ’s commitment to ferreting out corporate crimes and more rigorous enforcement activities.
