Frequently asked questions

Does an ISO 37001 certification shield the company from any prosecution?

No. The standard helps to prevent, detect and address bribery; it does not guarantee that no incident will occur and does not replace compliance with the law. A system that is applied and documented remains serious evidence of diligence.

Is the 2016 edition still valid?

No. ISO 37001:2025 has replaced the 2016 edition and its 2024 amendment, which are withdrawn. A system built today should aim for the 2025 edition.

Which companies are concerned?

The standard applies to any organisation, with measures proportionate to the risk. Companies that bid for public contracts or work with intermediaries or international partners are the first to implement it.

Can it be integrated into an existing ISO 9001 system?

Yes. The harmonised structure allows document control, internal audit and management review to be shared. The work specific to anti-bribery concerns risk assessment, due diligence and controls.
