ISO 37001 is suitable for organisations of all sizes and across various industries that seek to establish a robust Anti-Bribery Management System (ABMS) and demonstrate their commitment to ethical business practices. Implementing ISO 37001 is particularly beneficial for:

• Organizations operating in high-risk industries: Companies in sectors like construction, oil and gas, mining, defence, pharmaceuticals, or finance, which are often exposed to higher bribery risks due to their nature and the regulatory environments they operate in, can benefit significantly from implementing ISO 37001.
• Public sector entities: Government agencies, public utilities, and other public sector organizations are often at risk of bribery and corruption. Implementing ISO 37001 helps demonstrate their commitment to transparency and integrity in public administration.
• Organizations operating in multiple jurisdictions: Companies with operations in different countries or regions may be subject to varying anti-bribery laws and regulations. Implementing ISO 37001 can help ensure a consistent approach to managing bribery risks across all operations.
• Organizations with complex supply chains: Companies that engage with multiple suppliers, vendors, or contractors can use ISO 37001 to ensure consistent anti-bribery practices throughout their supply chain, reducing the risk of bribery incidents involving third parties.
• Companies seeking to enhance their reputation: Organizations that want to demonstrate their commitment to ethical business practices and distinguish themselves from competitors can benefit from implementing ISO 37001, which signals to stakeholders that they prioritise transparency and integrity.
