How to Avoid Corruption From Damaging Your Business

Bribery damages lives. Its direct victims include businesses that lose out unfairly because of corrupt practices. However these businesses are not the only victims. The wider losers are the government and the larger society, both of whom are severely undermined by the weakened rule of law and damaged economic and social development.

The core issues in fighting corruption are the principle of free and fair competition. Each bribe offered or accepted reduces these.
