Description
Bribery and corruption are found in all countries. It can hurt the poor disproportionately, undermine economic growth and is a barrier to poverty alleviation and good governance.
Organisations like the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development and the United Nations recognise that corruption is a major barrier to global social and economic development, and there is a range of well-established international conventions like the UN’s Convention against Corruption.
The Bribery Act 2010 brought UK legislation into line with the OECD Anti-Bribery Convention by defining the offences of bribery, increasing fines and prison sentences, and extending the scope of the law.
