To begin, select "Anti-Bribery Law".

One such international body is the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development, or OECD. Several years ago, the OECD recognized that multilateral cooperation was needed to fight corruption, so an anti-bribery convention was adopted.

Since its inception, more than three dozen countries have become a party to the convention. Countries seek OECD recognition because they want it to be known that they take a firm stance against corruption.

As a result of the OECD convention and other international agreements, numerous countries have adopted new laws or updated existing ones to combat bribery and other forms of corruption.

The investigation and prosecution of anti-bribery law violations are not limited to the country where the actual bribe took place. Acts contributing to a bribe can take place in different countries. People may even be forced to return to the country where the alleged crime occurred to answer to the charges.

Fighting corruption isn't always limited to bribes involving public officials, either. While this course focuses on public-sector bribery, the practice of bribing private-sector employees is being targeted as well.

Our company policy is not to pay bribes--either to government officials or purely private parties.
