ISO 37001:2016 Anti-Bribery Management System

ISO 37001 is the new international standard designed to help organi­zations implement an anti-bribery man­agement system. It specifies a series of measures your organization can implement to help pre­vent, detect and address bribery.

Designed to be integrated into your organization's existing management processes and controls, ISO 37001 also follows the common ISO structure for management system standards, for easy integration with ISO 9001 for example.

 

The requirements specified by ISO 37001 address two key areas:

  • Bribery by the organization, its personnel or business associates for its own gain
  • Bribery of the organization, its personnel or business associates in relation to its activities

Is ISO 37001 right for your business?

The standard is flexible and can be adapted to manage many types of bribery and suits a wide range of organizations including:

  • Large organizations and enterprises
  • Small and medium-sized enterprises
  • Public and not-for-profit organizations
  • Non-government organizations (NGOs) and charities
