Mexico is finally taking a hard stance on corruption, with the passing earlier this year of a new anti-corruption law that takes effect next July 2017.
The law, passed in July 2016, aims to crack down on bribery and corruption by forcing government officials to be more transparent about their finances and business transactions. It calls for the appointment of a special prosecutor to investigate corruption cases, boosts penalties for companies that break the law and pushes firms to create their own anti-corruption compliance programs.
