The FCPA prohibits promising, offering, giving or authorizing giving anything of value to a foreign government official where the purpose is to obtain or retain business. These prohibitions apply to U.S. persons, both individuals and companies, and companies that are listed on U.S. exchanges. The statute also requires companies publicly traded in the U.S. to keep accurate books and records and implement appropriate internal controls. More information on the FCPA can be found <a href="http://www.justice.gov/criminal/fraud/fcpa/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>.</p> <p>A party to a transaction seeking to know whether a proposed course of conduct would violate the FCPA can take advantage of the opinion procedure established by the statue. Within 30 days of receiving a description of a proposed course of conduct in writing, the Attorney General will provide the party with a written opinion on whether the proposed conduct would violate the FCPA. Not only do opinions provide the requesting party with a rebuttable presumption that the conduct does not violate the FCPA, but the Department of Justice publishes past opinions which can provide guidance for other companies facing similar situations.</p> <h4><strong>1992 Bilateral Investment Treaty</strong></h4> <p>The U.S.–Armenia Bilateral Investment Treaty (BIT), signed by the United States and Armenia in 1992 and in force since 1996, protects U.S. investment in Armenia. The BIT aims to protect investment abroad, encourage the adoption of market-oriented domestic policies that treat private investment in an open, transparent, and non-discriminatory way, and support the development of international law standards consistent with these objectives. The BIT also provides avenues for the resolution of investment disputes.</p> </p> <div class="panel-group" id="accordion"><div id="panel1" class="panel panel-default"><a class="accordion-toggle collapsed" name="panel1" data-toggle="collapse" data-parent="#accordion" href="#collapse1"><div class="panel-heading"><h4 class="panel-title">1992 Bilateral Investment Treaty signed by the United States and Armenia</h4></div></a><div id="collapse1" class="panel-collapse collapse"><div class="panel-body"><div class="accdiv"><p class="paragraph">Basic provisions regulating American investments are set by the Bilateral Investment Treaty (BIT) signed by the United States and Armenia in 1992 and in force since 1996, and by the 1994 Law on Foreign Investment.
