Anti-corruption for anti-coronavirus / COVID-19 risk management / CSO grants scheme

To Defeat the Coronavirus, Stop Corruption. “As the coronavirus spreads around the world, the rushed global response could create opportunities for graft, including fraud and bribery stemming from critical emergency cash flows and medical supply shortages. If safeguards are not put into place quickly, the scale of this corruption could be vast.” 

 

 

 

 

The Crossroads Between Risk Management and COVID-19. “With a changing risk landscape comes a need for new risk assessments and a subsequent adjustment of controls to contain those new or heightened risks. Risks constantly change and evolve (as should your compliance program). All guidance released by multiple enforcement authorities point to the same conclusion: A stale program is a failed program, no matter how well your compliance processes were designed in the first place. The question remains: How do compliance teams maintain the agility to swiftly respond to change and ensure the continuity of business and compliance?”.
