What's Going On? Some Questions Regarding UK Regarding Anti-Bribery Enforcement

For my money, the greatest R&B single ever was Marvin Gaye’s 1971 smash hit “What’s Going On?” While I knew that Gaye, who died in 1984, had been posthumously inducted to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1987; I did not know that he had a a three-octave vocal range or that he was ranked at number 6 on Rolling Stone’s list of the Greatest Singers of All Time. Gaye also ranked high on music magazines’ lists, ranking at number 18 on the 100 Greatest Artists of All Time on the music magazine, Rolling Stone and he ranked number 20 on VH-1's list of 100 Greatest Artists of All Time. See if you want to hear some of the most beautiful and heartfelt singing, head over to YouTube for a clip of Gaye belting out the classic.

I thought about the song’s title recently as over the past couple of weeks there have been some interesting articles appearing in interviews, reports and a London court ruling which raise some difficult questions as to just what may be going on at the UK Serious Fraud Office (SFO) regarding its enforcement of the UK Bribery Act and the ongoing ability of the SFO to bring enforcement actions for those companies which engage in bribery or otherwise violate the Bribery Act.
