Good Corporate Governance, Compliance, Transparency and Integrity

In the face of the increasingly prolific and demanding national and international legislation in very different areas (regulatory, money laundering, corruption, criminal, etc.), compliance systems emerge as increasingly necessary self-regulation mechanisms to avoid risks of regulatory, operational and reputational breaches.

The certification of criminal compliance and anti-bribery management systems will be relevant elements to consider in order to demonstrate due diligence, the prevention of illicit acts and the effective implementation and improvement of a management system that allows, among others, to ensure and provide evidence to management, administrators, judicial authorities, shareholders, investors, customers and other stakeholders that the organization has taken reasonable measures to prevent crime, corruption and bribery and thus reduce criminal risk.

To this end, certification must be granted with rigour, independence and sufficient competence so that it can be a useful tool for all interested parties. AENOR, a pioneer in this field, has certified since 2014 criminal compliance and bribery prevention systems of leading national and international companies in the field, offering advanced and recognized solutions that include the best practices at an international level, such as the certification of ISO 37001 to prevent bribery or the standard UNE 19601 , for criminal compliance management.
