Understanding the UK Bribery Act
A global standard for preventing bribery.
The UK Bribery Act 2010 is one of the most comprehensive anti-corruption laws in the world. It criminalizes bribery in both the public and private sectors, including the failure of organizations to prevent bribery by associated persons. The law applies globally to any company with a connection to the UK.
- Prohibits both giving and receiving bribes, including facilitation payments.
- Holds companies liable for failing to prevent bribery by employees or third parties.
- Encourages the implementation of “adequate procedures” to mitigate risk.
Ethics Are a Risk - If Left Unmanaged
Even with the best intentions, companies can face legal, financial, and reputational fallout if they can’t show how bribery risks are being addressed. The UK Bribery Act shifts the burden to organizations to prove that prevention efforts are real – and working.
- Helps avoid fines, criminal penalties, and reputational damage.
- Demonstrates commitment to ethical conduct and transparency.
- Encourages company-wide accountability for integrity and compliance.
