Brief Description
The public sector is highly regulated to prevent and detect corruption and procurement fraud. Companies and organisations within the private sector are to a lesser extent regulated, but are still subject to a plethora of laws and regulations. Some pieces of legislation have been drafted with the view to cast the net as wide as possible, and therefore creates a real risk that a company or its employees may face criminal prosecution with its accompanying reputational and other negative consequences.
 
Given the recent developments in South Africa, for instance evidence led at the State Capture Commission, private sector organisations are furthermore increasingly expected to be good corporate citizens. The lack of formal regulation creates an obligation for private sector organisations to take ownership in managing corruption and procurement fraud risk efficiently and effectively.
 
The online course in Anti-corruption and procurement fraud: Private sector provides delegates with a good understanding of why some people tend to break the law and the legislative regime (including foreign legislation which might be applicable to a SA company) regulating corruption and procurement fraud.
 
The common schemes perpetrated and the red flags indicating the existence of these schemes, are also dealt with. These issues lay the basis so that a delegate can have a good grasp as to how these risks should be identified, assessed and ultimately managed, with a special emphasis on an effective whistle-blowing regime.
