Measuring anti-corruption compliance in your company

As companies implement various anti-corruption ethics and compliance measures within their operations, it becomes increasingly important to track and analyze metrics, adjusting actions to improve performance against goals, thereby ensuring continuous monitoring and improvement. Measurement of anti-corruption compliance becomes indispensable for companies to not only maintain ethical standards and comply with legal requirements, but also inform investors' decision making, as this information is important for analyzing investment opportunities and risks.

In this fifth edition of the Global Webinar Series on Business Integrity organized by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) and the UN Global Compact, we delved into the intricacies of assessing anti-corruption compliance programmes. The session featured presentations by UNODC and the UN Global Compact and brought on board practitioners from Brazil, Malaysia, South Africa and Switzerland.
