Risk management
Communication of information in the context of investigations led by foreign authorities can constitute a risk for companies.
Despite the existence of rules which are aimed at securing data and therefore the economic interests of the State as well as those of French or foreign entities, such as the law n°68-678 of 26 July 1968 (known as the French Blocking Statute) or the Hague Convention of 18 March 1970, their implementation is not always easy.
