Introduction of ISO 37001

The origin of the ISO 37001 Anti-bribery Management System
        In recent years, governments or many international agencies have deeply recognized the dangers of bribery. They have adopted legislation, international conventions, agreements and initiatives to solve bribery problems.However, it is increasingly recognized that the law alone is not enough to solve the problem. It requires the senior organizations to contribute to anti-bribery and anti-corruption initiatives, especially in the comprehensive supply chain and outsourcing process to prevent and reduce the risk of bribery and corruption.
        On October 15, 2016, the ISO organization project committee officially formulated and issued the ISO 37001 anti-bribery management system based on BS 10500. As the first international anti-bribery management system, ISO 37001 is designed to help organizations strike bribery risks in their own businesses and throughout their global value chain.The anti-bribery management system reduces the risks and costs of corporate risks that may be associated with bribery by providing a manageable business framework for preventing, detecting and resolving bribery.
        Anti-bribery is not only the concern and demand of state-owned enterprises and foreign-funded companies. Facts have proved that compliance management and anti-bribery are the guarantee for the healthy development of any enterprises. We can see private companies like Alibaba, Tencent, Baidu, Jingdong, Wanda, Huawei and others to carry out the governance of internal corporate corruption.
