Maximizing business integrity through effective corruption risk analysis

The importance of businesses understanding the risks they face when it comes to preventing and countering corruption was highlighted during an April 2023 global webinar, ‘A Deep Dive Session: Assessing the Risk of Corruption to your Business’.

This Deep Dive Session is part of the Global Webinar Series on business integrity (https://businessintegrity.unodc.org/b..., jointly organized by UNODC and the UN Global Compact Academy. The Series aims to provide a space for knowledge-sharing and peer-learning on good practices, challenges, and effective approaches to business integrity, while contributing to a structured and inclusive global dialogue on business integrity.

More than 550 participants attended the interactive event in English with French, Portuguese and Spanish interpretation, including business practitioners and representatives from small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The session was also designed to discuss how to use corruption risk assessments to identify corruption vulnerabilities within business operations and develop efficient, cost-effective strategies to mitigate those risks.
