The risks associated with bribery and corruption incidents have dramatically increased in recent years.
'Long-arm' laws like the UK Bribery Act and the US Foreign Corrupt Practices Act are being aggressively enforced, a plethora of domestic legislation has emerged, and scrutiny from regulators and law enforcement agencies across the world is at an all-time high.
All this means that companies must be able to prevent, identify and respond to bribery and corruption incidents effectively, wherever in the world they do business.
