This report addresses the concerns of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) confronted with the problem of bribery. As smaller companies with limited resources, SMEs face challenges in resisting and countering such pressures. Also, there are growing requirements made by large international companies for their suppliers to show evidence that they have appropriate anti-bribery policies and systems in place.

The report aims to set out in a clear and direct manner the process by which smaller businesses can develop an anti-bribery programme relevant to their size and resources.
