ISO 37001

Fight against Corruption

PRESENTATION

Certification dedicated to the fight against corruption

The ISO 37001® standard defines the requirements and provides recommendations for the implementation, regular updating, and improvement of an anti-corruption management system. The standard addresses corruption risks in the public, private, non-profit, and local government sectors. Corruption can involve illicit countervalues of any nature or value, whether financial or non-financial, and has the potential to infiltrate anywhere.

Implementing an anti-corruption management system aims to promote an anti-corruption culture within organizations and to organize appropriate control measures, increasing the chances of detecting weaknesses and exposure risks related to corruption, thereby reducing its incidence.

The standard is regulated and disseminated by ISO.
