Business Principles for Countering Bribery - Small and Medium Enterprise (SME) Edition

To cater for the needs of smaller businesses, TI has produced an edition of the Business Principles for Countering Bribery tailored to the needs of small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs). More than 95% of the world’s business is carried out by SMEs which may not have the same human and financial resources as larger companies but are just as vulnerable to the risks of bribery. The SME Edition includes model anti-bribery principles for companies with fewer resources of time, money and people. It provides practical guidance for developing anti-bribery programmes that suit the size and structure of smaller enterprises. The SME Edition can also be used by larger companies to encourage SMEs in their supply chain to implement no-bribes policies and practices. see more |
Business Principles for Countering Bribery - Transparency International Self-Evaluation Tool
|
Transparency International’s Self-Evaluation Tool (TI SET) is a checklist that enables companies to examine the design of their anti-bribery programme and assess its effectiveness. Comprising an in-depth and extensive range of indicators, SET identifies the policies, procedures and reporting indicators that companies should consider for their anti-bribery programmes. This will help companies to determine where they stand, identify improvements and prepare reports to management, assurers and stakeholders. In this way TI SET can assist companies to manage risks more effectively and improve their operational efficiency. TI SET is aimed at larger companies but can also be of use to smaller companies wishing to check particular aspects of anti-bribery. An interactive diagnostic version of TI SET has been developed by TI and Enablon, a leading software company. This can be purchased from http://www.enablon.com. see more |
