Particular attention is paid in ISO 37001 to the types of suppliers and business partners with whom the organization conducts business relations, in order to reduce as much as possible the risks of bribery, which could involve the legal and contractual liability of the organization and its representatives. .

The certification of the anti-bribery management system demonstrates that the organization has implemented measures to prevent bribery, specific control and reporting measures.
