A UK law that reaches German boardrooms

The UK’s new “Failure to Prevent Fraud” offence has significant implications beyond its borders, including for German companies with UK operations or business connections.

 

Maria Cronin is speaking on a webinar on 25 June 2026 which will explore how the offence works in practice, when liability can extend to a German parent company, and the steps businesses can take to strengthen their fraud prevention frameworks.

 

The session will also examine the broad scope of fraud under UK law and the “reasonable procedures” defence available to organisations.
