OUR GLOBAL MOVEMENT
A senior level discussion between the company and TI-UK will establish whether there is a genuine alignment of interests. If so, the company will be invited to commence the application process.
A due diligence procedure is initiated designed to reassure TI-UK that the company’s overall ethos and policies are consistent with TI’s approach and values as well as the Forum’s Membership Principles.
The application process comprises a multi-step due diligence process including TI-UK undertaking a web-based background check, and, depending on the results of our open-web and database research, the company is invited to an interview between senior Managers / Directors of TI-UK and the applicant company.
The results are collated in a report that is sent to the TI-UK Board or a sub-committee thereof for approval. Further interviews or information may be requested if deemed necessary by the TI-UK Board.
An email and/or letter is issued to the company by a Director or Trustee of Transparency International UK notifying the company that it has been successful in its application to join the BIF, and outlining the BIF Membership Principles.
The company confirms that this has been approved at senior level and that the company’s board has been made aware of the decision to join.
