ISO 37001 ANTI-BRIBERY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM CERTIFICATION

Bribery is a significant risk for organizations worldwide, exposing businesses to legal penalties, financial losses, and reputational damage. In Indonesia, the issue remains pressing. Indonesia Corruption Watch reported 791 corruption-related cases involving 1,695 people, causing potential state losses of around IDR 28.4 trillion. Integrity metrics also reflect persistent concerns, with the 2024 Anti-Corruption Behaviour Index at 3.85/5 and Indonesia receiving a 37/100 score on the Corruption Perception Index.

These figures highlight the need for organizations to strengthen internal controls and ensure ethical practices across operations and third-party relationships. ISO 37001 provides a proven, internationally recognized approach to managing and reducing bribery risks.

WHAT IS ISO 37001?

ISO 37001 is a global standard that helps organizations establish, implement, and maintain an effective Anti-Bribery Management System (ABMS). The framework outlines policies, procedures, and controls designed to identify, prevent, and respond to bribery in all forms—both internally and through external partners.

This standard supports compliance with international anti-bribery conventions and evolving regulations, helping companies protect themselves and demonstrate a strong commitment to ethical conduct.
