Veronica Yepez is quoted extensively in Global Investigations Review from her panel session at the Latin Lawyer - GIR Live Anti-Corruption & Investigations conference in Mexico City. In discussing the legacy of the Brazilian “Car Wash” investigations, Ms. Yepez said that episode is driving cooperation in South America: “We are not only seeing close cooperation between Brazil and the U.S., but cooperation between Brazil and Colombia, Brazil and Peru, and Brazil and Argentina … even though the U.S. will continue to be a strong force in enforcement, it is no longer the case that all the enforcement action is being led by U.S. authorities.”
