ISO has developed an international standard to help organizations mitigate the risk bribery and promote ethical business practices. ISO 37001 requires organizations to design and implement an anti-bribery management system appropriate to their specific risk factor.

The requirements specified by ISO 37001 address two key areas:

• Bribery by the organization, its personnel or business associates for its own gain
• Bribery of the organization, its personnel or business associates in relation to its activities

ISO 37001 certification enables companies to protect and preserve the integrity of their organization by:

• Opening the organization to external scrutiny by experienced auditor to test the effectiveness of the anti-bribery program

• Demonstrating compliance to relevant legislation such as the UK Bribery Act 2010, Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and other anti-bribery laws, to suppliers, customers and other third parties, showing the company's efforts to continually monitor and assess the level of maturity of their Compliance Program.

• Reducing the risk of financial and reputational damage caused by bribery

Through our partnership with MSECB, an ISO certification body, accredited by the International Accreditation Service (IAS) in the USA, STEER is uniquely qualified to audit anti-bribery management systems globally.
