关于我国制定《海外反商业贿赂法》的思考

Reflection on the Enacting of Foreign Anti-Bribery Practices Act in China

自1977年美国制定《海外反腐败法》以来,反对跨国经济活动中的商业贿赂,逐渐成为一股世界潮流。目前,主要市场经济国家都已制定相关法律,联合国、经济合作与发展组织等一些重要的国际组织也制定了国际反腐败方面的公约。我国经济正在实施“走出去”战略,大量企业纷纷走出国门开拓国际市场,为了保护我国企业在跨国经济活动中的公平竞争秩序,我国应该制定自己的《海外反商业贿赂法》,这既是必要的,也是可行的。

Since United States enacted the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act in 1977, it becomes a world trend to ban commercial bribery in transnational economic activities. In the background that the main market- economy countries have already made relevant laws, that significant international organizations such as United Nations, the Organization for Economic Co - operation and Development also acted out enacted international conventions concerning anti- corruption issues, and that China is adopting “goingout” economic strategy with more and more Chinese companies taking active roles in international trade today, it is both necessary and possible for China to enact her own Foreign Anti - Bribery Act. For the purpose of achieving a fair competition order, it could be never too urgent a way out to protect Chinese enterprises＇ interests in the multinational economic transactions.
