The DOJ launched a nationwide policy in March 2026, encouraging companies to self-report misconduct in exchange for possible prosecution avoidance.
On March 10, 2026, the U.S. Department of Justice launched its first nationwide Corporate Enforcement Policy, creating a uniform framework for handling corporate misconduct.
The policy encourages companies to self-report wrongdoing by offering potential declinations of prosecution or non-prosecution agreements if they voluntarily disclose violations, fully cooperate, promptly remediate issues, and lack aggravating factors like prior misconduct.
Companies meeting all criteria typically avoid prosecution, while those with minor gaps may receive reduced fines and shorter agreements.
The policy replaces inconsistent regional guidelines, enhances transparency, and emphasizes accountability, though final decisions remain at prosecutors’ discretion.
