International trade is essential for the growth and development of global economies and businesses. As international trade has expanded and developed, so too have the myriad rules and regulations that govern it. The global compliance environment is becoming more complex by the day and can be difficult to navigate without the assistance of experienced counsel. Failure to comply with international trade rules and regulations—even if done so unwittingly—can lead to civil and criminal penalties, monitorships, consent agreements, debarment, reputational damage, substantial administrative burden, legal expense, and unsatisfied business objectives. Increasingly, there also is exposure for individual officers/directors, which can include monetary penalties and, potentially, jail time.

Winston Serves as Lead Counsel to GCP Capital Partners in New Continuation Vehicle
Winston & Strawn served as legal counsel to GCP Capital Partners (GCP) in connection with the formation and closing of a single-asset continuation vehicle involving ALKEME Insurance. Led by the PE and Funds Group practices, the team advised GCP throughout the transaction which included substantial newly committed capital to fund portfolio company ALKEME’s continued growth (the single asset). The fund raise was backed by a syndicate of institutional investors where Apollo S3 served as the lead investor. The deal signals a growing trend: the strategic use of continuation vehicles to extend sponsors’ ownership in high-performing portfolio companies. This deal also reflects a broader narrative in middle-market private equity: firms that started small are now scaling rapidly, and they’re turning to sophisticated liquidity solutions to fuel that growth.

What Is the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA)?
The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) is a federal statute prohibiting United States citizens and entities from engaging in corruption. It has two main elements: (1) anti-bribery provisions, forbidding the giving or offering of anything of value to a foreign government official for business and (2) accounting requirements, establishing mandatory practice guidelines for companies to maintain accurate records and internal controls. The FCPA is enforced by the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
