Anti-Bribery & Corruption Policy Template

This editable Word template helps regulated firms comply with the UK Bribery Act 2010, FCA Handbook (SYSC 6.1.1R and FCG 6.3), Ministry of Justice (MoJ) guidance on adequate procedures, and related financial crime prevention standards. It also integrates considerations for sanctions compliance under the Sanctions and Anti-Money Laundering Act 2018 (SAMLA) and OFSI guidance.

The template provides a structured framework for establishing proportionate procedures to prevent, detect, and respond to bribery and corruption risks. It covers top-level commitment from senior management, bribery risk assessment, internal controls, gifts and hospitality thresholds, facilitation payments, charitable and political donations, due diligence on third parties, employee screening, sanctions checks, training programmes, whistleblowing channels, monitoring, breach response, and record-keeping requirements.

This policy sets out responsibilities for employees, contractors, suppliers, and other associated persons, ensuring compliance across all jurisdictions in which a firm operates. It aligns with MoJ’s six principles for adequate procedures—proportionate controls, leadership commitment, risk assessment, due diligence, communication and training, and monitoring and review—helping firms demonstrate a strong defence under Section 7 of the Bribery Act 2010.

Ideal for FCA-authorised firms and other UK-linked entities seeking to implement or strengthen their ABC framework, the template is instantly downloadable and fully editable, enabling firms to establish clear standards, reduce legal and regulatory risk, and promote a zero-tolerance culture towards bribery and corruption.
