What is ISO 37001?
ISO 37001 is the international standard for anti-bribery management systems. It specifies requirements and provides guidance for establishing, implementing, maintaining, reviewing, and improving a system aimed at preventing, detecting, and responding to bribery. This standard can function as a standalone system or be integrated into an overall management framework and is applicable to organizations of all types, across the public, private, and not-for-profit sectors. The most recent update, ISO 37001:2025, includes enhanced provisions on compliance culture, climate change impacts, conflict of interest management, and further clarifications on the anti-bribery function, ensuring alignment with the latest international practices and other management system standards.
Why is ISO 37001 important?
ISO 37001 is important because it provides organizations with a systematic approach to prevent and manage bribery risk, which is a pervasive issue that undermines governance, increases the cost of doing business, and distorts competition. The standard helps organizations establish a culture of integrity, transparency, and compliance, critical for maintaining trust and confidence in business operations. It supports compliance with anti-bribery laws and helps manage the organization's reputation by demonstrating commitment to ethical practices.
