How can you protect your company from the global corruption pandemic?

There are several hidden risks inside and outside their organisations. Organisations have to take actions to protect themselves, reputation, employees and other #stakeholders from #bribery and #corruption associated #risks. At ABAC® we believe that “saying NO TO CORRUPTION” is not enough enough and we draw attention all-year-round on how organisations can take action to secure themselves and contribute towards businesses’ fight against bribery and corruption risks. Check out our FREE Anti-Corruption Webinar recording for more on how to protect your business and your team against corruption and fraud.

The global pandemic of corruption is taking over!

Even with the world under partial lockdown during the COVID-19 pandemic, there’s been no shortage of bribery and corruption cases. Did you know that £100 billion of dirty money passes through the UK systems and services every year? Or that £1.27 billion is lost annually to fraud, bribery and corruption in the NHS? Recently, the Airbus was fined £3.6 billion in February 2020 by courts in the UK, US and France for slush funds, “success payments” and lavish hospitality. Are you 100% sure what’s happening in your organisation or even department? Such risks could affect you any time and not only in healthcare or aviation industries – no industry, organisation or even country is immune to that. The above mentioned shocking figures indicate the need for organisations in public and private sectors and different industries to take more stringent actions to stop bribery and corruption.

Continuing Professional Development (CPD) ensures that you and your knowledge stay relevant and up to date. You are more aware of the changing trends and directions in your profession. … If you stand still you will get left behind, as the currency of your knowledge and skills becomes out-dated. Anyone who works within a sector that is formally regulated (e.g. by the Solicitors Regulation Authority or Financial Conduct Authority), is likely to be required to track and progress their CPD in order to maintain their license to practice or professional qualifications. At ABAC® we believe that formal training is important, but CPD encompasses any form of activities from which you learn and develop. … CPD is important because you continue to learn and develop, keeping skills and knowledge up to date so you are able to practice safely and effectively throughout your career.
