- Bribery is an enormous problem
- Bribery is detrimental to society
- We have zero-tolerance for bribery
Despite a worldwide effort to eradicate bribery, it is still prevalent in many countries and presents a real risk for businesses.
Bribery is the act of giving or offering money, or another benefit or inducement, to persuade someone to act in your favour to obtain an unlawful advantage.
It is a criminal offence and also a predicate offence that can lead to charges of money laundering. Both offences carry harsh penalties including imprisonment and unlimited fines.
