Anti-bribery and corruption is one of the issues under the PSCI Principles. The PSCI has commissioned an external benchmark on anti-bribery and corruption (ABC) standards and trends in supply chain. This report has been created to help our member companies and suppliers strengthen the ABC risk management practice in their supply chain.

Background: Regulations around anti‐corruption have been tightened and stakeholder expectations have increased. PSCI wants to encourage and support members and suppliers to continually enhance their anti‐corruption program for compliance with the latest guidelines issued by different regulatory authorities around the globe. Organizations are expected to develop proactive, risk‐based compliance programs that are tailored to the specific risk profile and are reasonably designed to prevent them and their employees/agents/suppliers from engaging in bribery or corrupt acts.
