Sustainable Development and Business Ethics. The Global System for Sustainable Development (GSSD). Distinguishing and Relating the Pieces to Reach a Unitary Vision

The "Confédération Suisse" (Swiss Confederation) has decided to establish a new regulatory system to make more effective liberalization of the postal sector, playing both on competition, the strengthening of the powers of the regulator and the privatization of the incumbent operator. The system entering in place on the 1st of October 2012, the "Conseil Fédéral" (SwissFederal Council) appointed the new board members of the "Poste Suisse (Swiss Post)" as well as those who will lead the new regulator: the Commission de la Poste - PostCom". We observe that these are the former managers of the "Post Suisse".

Book presentation in English :

Regulation. Supervision. Compliance.

Three terms almost unknown to legal systems. Or at least considered as peculiar to Anglo-American legal systems: Regulation, Supervision, Compliance. So many expressions that would constitute Trojan horses by which the Common Law and american mechanisms would seize the other legal traditions to better bend European companies, especially banks, appropriating institutions, imposing strange methods.

Three words by which the invasion is carried out. Through the violence of repression and penalties of compliance, by the mildness of codes of conduct and corporate social responsibility. By laws as new as strange such as in France the law known as "Sapin 2" or the law instituting a "duty of vigilance" to companies whose failure would be to have successfully deployed internationally their activities.

One can have this defensive conception of Compliance, generating a "Compliance Law", produced by internalization in global economic operators of the Regulation Law, which are then subject to Supervision by Regulators, even though these firms are not regulated, as the Compliance does extend beyond supervised sectors (banks and insurance companies).

We can (and maybe must) have a more welcoming, and therefore more offensive, concept of Compliance. This can be the crucible of a relationship of supra-national Trust between these operators and regulators, the former being able to contribute as the latter to serving goals that all exceed them and whose fight against corruption and money laundering are only examples.

In this way, the issue is the construction of the European Compliance Law.

Presentation of the topic:  There are numerous compliance clauses. Surprisingly little research has been done on them, which hinders the development of this practice. However, the Compliance Obligation that is so often emphasised in relation to civil liability no doubt because Compliance Law is excessively associated with sanctions, can just as easily originate from contracts and multiple clauses, since this is another way of being bound, without it being anything more than a means for the persons thus bound to fulfil their regulatory obligation.

It is therefore practice that has developed compliance clauses, the very existence of which is the subject of this symposium. By highlighting these provisions, their originality can be revealed, as well as the uniqueness conferred on them by Compliance Law and the diversity that may be required depending on criteria related to the purpose of the clauses, but also to the sector of activity or the identity of the contracting parties themselves. 

From this already established practice, it is certainly the Judge who will determine its uniqueness and specificity. This case law is in its infancy because this practice is the result of compliance requirements arising from an emerging branch of Law, which is still under development.

Furthermore, the clauses examined here are not conceived from scratch, but are often adaptations of clauses familiar to lawyers, and as such may be reproduced, regulated, or even restricted or prohibited by rules that fall not only under general Contract Law, but also, clause by clause under Competition Law, Distribution Law, Consumer Law, Judicial and Procedural Law, or Private International law. The logic of Compliance Law, when it takes contractual form, does not always prevail and, in the same way that Compliance Law as a branch of Law is linked to other branches, compliance clauses, if they are to multiply and become more sophisticated, must be subject to this link.

In France, The "Autorité de la Concurrence" -ADLC (French Competition Authority) may deliver opinions. An association of importers of petroleum products asked it his opinion on statistics of sales made by each warehouse of petroleum products on each area of the national territory, published monthly. By notice on May 15, 2012, the Authority replied that such statistics on each operator are welcome because they generate transparency on the retail market, although it should be that statistics cover all of the territory and are published every six months or annually.

Presentation of the theme:  

The Compliance obligation will increasingly take the form of contracts. This is because the texts unilaterally adopted by Public Authorities oblige economic operators to adopt clauses to give concrete form to the legal obligations of Compliance, for instance active prevention of corruption or effective vigilance in the value chain to avoid environmental or human rights violations. It also comes from the fact that companies, for many reasons, commit themselves to contribute to the efficacy achievement of the Monumental Goals of Compliance, with the contract being the most natural, balanced and flexible way to achieve this.

In this multiple contractual activity, which can manifest itself either in complete contracts, "compliance contracts", or in stipulations that more or less deviate from the regulations, the judge is never far away, because the judge is always, regardless of the legal system and the type of contract, active in this matter.

 

The general relationship between the Judge and Compliance Law has just been the subject of a series of symposiums and the publication of a book, La juridictionnalisation de la Compliance (Compliance Jurisdictionalisation, to be published in English). The aim here is to refocus the perspective on what happens when the judge is facing a contract that has Compliance issues at stake or, at the very least, contains Compliance stipulations.

The purpose of this symposium and the articles that will follow is to study this hypothesis, which is becoming more and more frequent and could become the standard.
