Associated Persons and Due Diligence
This course provides in-depth information on associated persons and the importance of due diligence in preventing bribery.
Description
Not only could your employer be found guilty of an offence if bribery takes place within the firm, but also if bribery is committed by an associated third party. Associated persons are anyone who acts on the firm's behalf, whether contracted or not. For example, professional partners, agents and recruiters.
You've been tasked with reporting on the due diligence of your firm's associated persons. Throughout this challenge, you'll need to review some of your firm's external relationships and decide whether to report a bribery risk, or move on.
