The Bribery Act 2010 overhauled UK bribery law, creating new offenses of offering, promising, or giving a bribe; requesting, agreeing to receive, or accepting a bribe; and failing to prevent bribery by persons associated with a commercial organization. It aims to modernize and simplify prosecution of bribery. Penalties for individuals include up to 10 years imprisonment and unlimited fines. Companies can face unlimited fines. All companies should have anti-bribery policies and procedures in place to prevent offenses.
