There is a need to reform accountability and anti-corruption policies in Pakistan. Read the answers to the following questions:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>To what extent are boards and senior executives in Pakistan taking proactive steps to reduce incidences of fraud and corruption from surfacing within their company?<\/li>\n<li>Have there been any significant legal and regulatory developments relevant to corporate fraud and corruption in Pakistan over the past 12-18 months?<\/li>\n<li>When suspicions of fraud or corruption arise within a firm, what steps should be taken to evaluate and resolve the potential problem?<\/li>\n<li>Do you believe companies are paying enough attention to employee awareness, such as training staff to identify and report potential fraud and misconduct?<\/li>\n<li>How has the renewed focus on encouraging and protecting whistleblowers changed the way companies manage and respond to reports of potential wrongdoing?<\/li>\n<li>and much more\u2026<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>To what extent are boards and senior executives in Pakistan taking proactive steps to reduce incidences of fraud and corruption from surfacing within their company?\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>CRI<span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">\u00ae<\/span><\/span> Group: <\/strong>Rising fraud risks have driven companies to establish the right steps to prevent fraud and corruption from surfacing. Following through with a focused trajectory ultimately also ensures failsafe protections are put in place, which will guard against scandals or negative publicity, while minimising risk exposure. There is quite a notable empirical rise in the frequency of companies conducting background screenings to nip corruption in the bud. Though checks can vary in nature, enforcing internal controls by implementing ISO strategies can bring pivotal change to a company\u2019s strategy.<\/p>\n<h3><strong> Have there been any significant legal and regulatory developments relevant to corporate fraud and corruption in Pakistan over the past 12-18 months?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>CRI<span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">\u00ae<\/span><\/span> Group: <\/strong>Hard-line anti-fraud and anti-corruption policies are becoming more commonplace. Companies can face hefty fines for breaching the statutory parameters set forth by regulatory authorities. Transparency International is also driving many GCC countries to improve their anti-fraud and corruption provisions. Public participation and whistleblower tip-offs have also contributed to the monitoring process, thus encouraging the establishment and sanctioning of management systems designed for anti-corruption purposes.<\/p>\n<h3><strong> When suspicions of fraud or corruption arise within a firm, what steps should be taken to evaluate and resolve the potential problem?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>CRI<span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">\u00ae<\/span><\/span> Group: <\/strong>Vigilance from compliance professionals must ensure that fraud is detected within companies. If such suspicions are aroused, a prompt response strategy must be put in place. However, if the suspect is ultimately found innocent, it may dampen employee morale and affect the company\u2019s credibility and reputation. Setting up a committee is an integral step to helping companies investigate any potentially fraudulent activity, the quorum of which should be comprised of senior management, finance, compliance and HR professionals. In the interest of avoiding any internal conflicts of interest, an independent investigation company should be employed to conduct due diligence on the suspect and share the report with the committee for immediate action to be taken against the suspect, if proven guilty.<\/p>\n<h3><strong> Do you believe companies are paying enough attention to employee awareness, such as training staff to identify and report potential fraud and misconduct?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>CRI<span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">\u00ae<\/span><\/span> Group: <\/strong>Previously, these areas were untouched but now the picture has changed, and with the changing scenario comes rapid evolution. Increasing global compliance requirements and awareness regarding corruption have increased employer awareness. Essentially, compliance professionals are now increasingly required to have adequate and up-to-date knowledge of anti-bribery and anti-corruption practices. Therefore, compliance and HR teams are ensuring the maintenance of well-versed and explicit policies for dealing with misconduct and fraud cases. It is now also a norm to see frequent awareness sessions and dedicated training sessions conducted to ensure compliance with these policies within the corporate realm, particularly in conjunction with certification bodies for hands-on training from experts.<\/p>\n<h3><strong> How has the renewed focus on encouraging and protecting whistleblowers changed the way companies manage and respond to reports of potential wrongdoing?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>CRI<span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">\u00ae<\/span><\/span> Group: <\/strong>Whistleblowing is regarded with increasing importance by many companies, and this is then communicated during the onboarding process to ensure awareness of potential risk areas and wrongdoing. The most important aspect of this would be to ensure clarity on the whistleblowing process itself. Confidentiality and privacy security assurance to whistleblowers is, above all, what would boost employee confidence to responsibly partake in helping to safeguard the company\u2019s integrity by blowing the whistle without the fear of inviting any undesirable impact, such as jeopardising their job security.<\/p>\n<h3><strong> Could you outline the main fraud and corruption risks that can emerge from third-party relationships? In your opinion, do firms pay sufficient attention to due diligence at the outset of a new business relationship?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>CRI<span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">\u00ae<\/span><\/span> Group: <\/strong>The \u2018Pandora\u2019s box\u2019 of corporate fraud and corruption may comprise issues pertaining to insurance claim fraud, investment \u2018black holes\u2019, ghost companies and criminal and civil litigation precedent, among others. There is a greater need for third-party risk management services due to the rapid expansion of companies.<\/p>\n<h3><strong> What advice can you offer to companies on implementing and maintaining a robust fraud and corruption risk management process, with appropriate internal controls?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>CRI<span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">\u00ae<\/span><\/span> Group: <\/strong>Risk management is an essential part of minimising the costs that can arise in the long term due to losses and falling prey to fraudulent practices in the corporate realm. This can be implemented through a resilient management system that has been designed to specifically target any loopholes and any roadblocks, the impact of which can often be greater than anticipated, rattling the company and causing harm that could lead to lawsuits, unanticipated monetary and financial losses and hefty fines imposed by regulatory authorities, from which the company may never recover.<\/p>\n<h4>Speak up <strong>&#8211; report any illegal, unethical, or improper behaviour<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>If you find yourself in an ethical dilemma or suspect inappropriate or illegal conduct, and you feel uncomfortable reporting through normal channels of communication, or wish to raise the issue anonymously, use CRI<span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">\u00ae<\/span><\/span> Group\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/crigroup.com\/ar\/compliance-ethics-hotlines\/\">Compliance Hotline<\/a>.
