Why corporate integrity is more crucial now than ever. “Integrity is more important today than it has ever been. As companies anticipate and respond to current challenges, such as by changing suppliers and shifting priorities, it’s essential that compliance standards are upheld. If they’re not, companies are exposing themselves to major risk. In times of crisis, personal conduct can be the first standard to slip, evidenced by the latest insights gleaned from thousands of companies that participated in EY’s Global Integrity Report 2020.”

(Nepal) Controversial provisions in corruption-related bills to be revised but private sector to remain under the purview of anti-graft body. “The Standing Committee of the ruling Nepal Communist Party has agreed to revise the controversial provisions on two corruption-related amendment bills, but the party’s lawmakers are adamant on including the private sector under the purview of the national anti-graft body. Opposition parties and the private sectors have been criticising the government for trying to expand the jurisdiction of the Commission for Investigation of Abuse of Authority when it has failed to control corruption in the public sector.”
