Complying With Global Anti-Corruption Legislation 2013

Global anti-corruption legislation such as The UK Bribery Act and the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act are very clear when it comes to corporate responsibility for bribery and corruption. Under these laws, companies can be prosecuted for failing to implement the necessary policies and procedures to prevent bribery. But it’s not just global regulators that Asia’s companies need to be concerned about. Local anti-corruption watchdogs are also growing in strength and voracity and are increasingly looking to unearth examples of corporate corruption.

As such, it is essential for Asian organizations that fall under their remit to develop a robust anti-corruption framework that actively aims to prevent corruption and mitigates the risk of violations.
