Simply put, No. Foreign persons acting in the U.S. are subject to the FCPA, as well as U.S. subsidiaries of foreign companies. The country of domicile has become far more irrelevant in modern times where technology has made money more fungible and communications seamless. Multinational companies operating on a global basis need to be wary of FCPA compliance, even if they are not U.S.-domiciled, as their actions could create such liability in many distinct ways, with the government seeking potentially expansive definitions of what it means to be “acting in the U.S.”
