This microlearning course on Associated Persons and Due Diligence is part of our Anti-Bribery and Corruption curriculum. The course is designed to offer a deeper understanding of associated persons and the importance of due diligence in preventing bribery and the best practice for preventing bribery in this area.
Set in an interactive format with learners taking on the role of an employee who has just been promoted and assigned responsibility for managing relationships with an external agent and a partner company. The course is split into two main scenarios involving external agents and partner organisations focusing on the key steps to take to prevent bribery and corruption.
It is a financial crime for organisations and the individuals working for them to offer or accept a bribe. For employees who regularly represent their organisation on trips, it’s important to understand the risks of bribery when travelling for business and dealing with partners and suppliers. A business could be found guilty of bribery and corruption, even if the offence is committed by an associated person. Training your employees to identify instances of bribery as well as avoiding them is key to reinforcing the ethical and legal obligations for businesses while developing a culture of compliance across the business.
Learners are tested on their knowledge of bribery and corruption against a number of scenarios involving due diligence and associated persons. The challenge is to correctly flag areas of concern so that the business is protected against the risks of bribery when working with external partners and associated persons. Learners must aim to correctly raise as many red flags as possible. Learners can also take the assessment again to improve their score.

Included Features
Under bribery regulations, it is recommended that organisations conduct a proportionate and risk-based approach to due diligence. This enables organisations to understand explicitly the individuals which they are dealing with. The UK Bribery Act states that organisations can be held liable for corruption conducted by associated persons.
The Section 7 of the UK Bribery Act 2010 incorporates an important note on “failure to prevent bribery.” This section focuses on company liability for bribery offences committed by employees or associated persons which could demonstrate the intention to create an advantage in the conduct of business for their organisation.
Failure to prevent bribery is a vital element of anti-bribery and corruption regulations. If an organisation can demonstrate that they have implemented adequate procedures to protect against bribery and corruption, then they are protected, and the risks are mitigated. However, if businesses cannot demonstrate the presence of adequate measures taken, then they will be at risk of breaching anti-bribery regulation.
