Anti Bribery Management System

What is ISO 37001

An anti-bribery management system aims to create a culture of integrity within an organization and put in place controls to prevent and detect bribery. ISO 37001 outlines the requirements and guidance for establishing, implementing, and improving such a system. It can stand alone or be integrated into the organization's broader management system. The standard addresses bribery across various sectors and scenarios, including actions by or against the organization or its employees, as well as bribery facilitated by third parties. Bribery can occur in any location, involve any value, and encompass financial or non-financial incentives.
