The International Governance and Risk Institute (GovRisk) organises Public and In-House Training Courses aimed to give comprehensive advice and support on the UK Bribery Act 2010 to individuals, companies and organisations, working in a large number of jurisdictions.
The UK Bribery Act 2010, which came into force in July 2011, introduced the new corporate offence of “failure to prevent bribery”. Breaches carry jail terms for individuals and unlimited fines for companies, both inside and outside the UK.
Same as the US Foreign and Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA), the Bribery Act has an extra-jurisdictional reach, applying to non-UK companies, companies operating entirely outside the UK, non-UK nationals and offences committed outside the UK.
The International Governance and Risk Institute (GovRisk) organises:
- The public one-day training course “The UK Bribery Act 2010 and Your Organisation”: a thorough overview of how the Act affects your business;
- Several In-House Training/Workshops, to tailor training and consultancy to your specific needs with the following off-the-shelf sessions:
- The breakfast seminar “The Bribery Act 2010 and its implications for your organisation”;
- The morning seminar “Redefining Corporate Hospitality”
- Political Contributions and the Bribery Act
- The Bribery Act in my Jurisdiction
- The Bribery Act and SMEs
- The Bribery Act and Auditors – Internal and External
The International Governance and Risk Institute (GovRisk) will ensure you satisfy the new standards, regardless of organisation size, geographic location or jurisdictional framework.
