Inmarkets Bribery Prevention Conference prepares businesses for the Bribery Act

March 3, 2011 - PRLog -- Industry experts from PwC, Clifford Chance, Centrica and Aviva, joined forces with Inmarkets and other experts to present their experiences and insight into the issues surrounding risk assessment, third party due diligence, and gifts and hospitality. During the conference, Inmarkets showcased its e-learning courses and some online tools to support implementation of adequate procedures.

Vivek Dodd, Director of Inmarkets said: “There are some really simple steps - based on the Six Principles of Bribery Prevention - which companies can take to evidence the implementation of adequate procedures. They range from a tracked video message from the CEO, crowd-sourcing information for bribery risk assessment and third-party due diligence, standardised e-learning supplemented with scenario-based simulations, and just-in-time decision support tools to make the companies policies and procedures 'clear, practical and accessible'. Inmarkets is one of the companies at the forefront - providing the e-learning courses, tools and anti-bribery portals to bring all the resources together for companies.”

52 delegates participated in the Inmarkets pre-conference telephone survey, which investigated what organisations are doing in terms of adequate procedures, gifts and hospitality limits. Examples of the findings include:
•   58% of the respondents plan to use e-learning, half of them plan to blend e-learning with live seminars for higher risk personnel, while 31% are still exploring training options
•   44% consider their current gifts and hospitality regime to be appropriate for the Bribery Act, of the rest 80% plan to tighten their procedures gradually and 20% plan a major overhaul
•   Just over 20% have no monetary limits on gifts and hospitality, and of those who do, £100 is the overwhelmingly common limit.

The full results of this survey are also available on the Inmarkets website, along with a demo version of the Inmarkets Bribery Prevention e-learning course and the presentations from the conference. Go to www.inmarkets.com and register in the login area to see more information.
