The paper attempted to define the impact of the <span style="mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (</span>FCPA) legislation governing the United States’ Multi National Corporations (MNC), roles of culture, ethicality, and social responsibility principles in assessing and mitigating global risks. The paper discussed ethical leadership behavior in risk management. In addition, the paper presented strategies to integrate a r<span style="mso-bidi-font-weight: bold; mso-bidi-font-style: italic;">elational exchange </span>model and Cost-of-Risk Analysis (CORA) two-step process for cost-benefit evaluation for mitigating global supply chain management risks. The paper also highlighted financial risk management strategies using a net present value (NPV) of at least zero to embark on expenditure streams. Recommendations, summary and conclusion were also presented. </span></span></p>
