ARTICLE: Recent Developments in CGU Guidance: Impacts on Corporate Compliance Programs
Brazil’s Office of the Comptroller‐General (CGU) has historically been the primary regulatory authority shaping the country’s corporate integrity framework. Over the last months, however, it has expedited regulatory changes, introducing a series of initiatives that have collectively redefined the standards for comprehensive compliance programs. A revised conceptual framework for integrity now incorporates sustainability and human rights into the compliance mandate. The 2025-2026 cycle of the Pró-Ética program establishes more stringent criteria for companies seeking public acknowledgment of their integrity initiatives. Updates to the Manual for Evaluating Integrity Programs in Administrative Enforcement Proceedings are expected by July 2025.
