Explore five common weaknesses that undermine compliance program effectiveness and learn how to address them proactively.
Many organizations expand into new markets or adopt new business models without evaluating associated risks. A thorough risk assessment, supported by due diligence, helps uncover corruption exposure and guides stronger internal controls.
From tone at the top to tone in the middle, leadership shapes everyday ethical behavior. Inconsistent messaging, lack of visibility or poor follow-through from managers creates confusion and undermines the compliance message.
Under-resourcing the compliance team, or assigning compliance duties as secondary responsibilities, reduces program effectiveness. Dedicated staffing, appropriate funding and clearer reporting lines elevate compliance as a strategic priority.
Policies without actionable procedures rarely influence behaviour. Training that is generic or infrequent fails to address specific risks. Clear communication, tailored learning and strong speak-up channels are essential for employee understanding.
Ongoing monitoring ensures that policies are being followed and highlights areas for improvement. When corrective actions are inconsistent, or when senior employees are treated differently, trust erodes. Consistent enforcement strengthens program integrity and deters misconduct.
