BSI ISO 37001

What is ISO 37001?
ISO 37001 is a standard dedicated to establishing, implementing, maintaining, and improving an anti-bribery management system. This standard offers requirements and guidance for setting up systems designed to help organizations prevent, detect, and respond to bribery, as well as comply with anti-bribery laws and voluntary commitments applicable to their activities. It covers various forms of bribery (direct and indirect) within public, private, and not-for-profit sectors.

Why is ISO 37001 important?
Bribery is a pervasive issue that undermines societal, economic, and political structures, leading to injustice, distorted competition, and increased operational costs among other severe implications. ISO 37001 is critical as it provides organizations with a systematic approach to combat bribery. This approach is not only about legal compliance but also about fostering a culture of integrity, transparency, and trust within organizations. By implementing an anti-bribery management system, organizations can mitigate risks and damage associated with bribery, enhance their reputation, and ensure stable and fair market operations.
