Clifford Chance and Thomson Reuters eLearning

Corruption is a global phenomenon which

affects businesses seeking tenders (both

public and private sector), contracting withintermediaries and agents, giving

charitable donations, providing corporate

hospitality, hiring employees, starting up

operations abroad, keeping accurate

accounts, filing tax claims or just carrying

out their daily business. Failure to comply

with the relevant legislation can lead to

serious consequences for companies and

employees, including criminal sanctions of

imprisonment or fines, civil law claims,

blacklisting in public and private tender

proceedings and severe reputational risks.

The Clifford Chance course content, delivered by

Thomson Reuters, addresses the universal principles of

anti-bribery / anti-corruption compliance, written and

reviewed by legal professionals with both local

knowledge and cross-border experience on high profile

anti-corruption cases. The course sets out the

fundamental principles of anti-corruption compliance

based on relevant national and international law.
