Fundamentals of anti-bribery and anti-corruption compliance in South Africa
Abstract
Corruption is endemic in jurisdictions throughout the world. The financial and
reputational risks that follow incidents of corrupt activity within an organisation are
considerable. Often they can be quite severe. The financial consequences include
not only the loss that an organisation may suffer from corrupt activity, but also the
money that needs to be spent investigating these type of incidents as well as that
required for any ensuing legal processes. The latter include civil proceedings to
recover funds that may have been misappropriated from an organisation as a result
of corrupt activity, disciplinary enquiry proceedings against employees involved in
such activity, criminal investigations and/or regulatory enforcement processes.
