The UK Bribery Act came into force in 2011 and affects all UK and overseas companies doing business in the UK. It established four key bribery offences and provides for a "failure to prevent bribery" offence for commercial organizations. The Act is enforced by the Serious Fraud Office and carries a maximum penalty of 10 years imprisonment. Several high-profile cases have been prosecuted under the Act involving both individuals and companies. Compliance requires establishing adequate procedures including top-level commitment, risk assessments, due diligence, training and monitoring. Criticisms of the Act include a lack of advisory services and not considering foreign customs, while its impact has increased focus on corporate social responsibility and intermediary relationships.
