Understanding how the Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI), the most widely used indicator of corruption worldwide, intersects with broader geopolitical risks is essential for anti-bribery and corruption compliance professionals.

As global markets face heightened political volatility, sanctions activity, and regulatory scrutiny, the CPI is no longer just a corruption index, it is a strategic lens for assessing institutional resilience and identifying jurisdictions where bribery risks are amplified by wider instability.

Our annual Business Integrity Forum briefing will explore how CPI data can be used alongside indicators of political, economic, and security risk to transform the quality of your risk assessments.

By examining how corruption correlates with weak rule of law, conflict, supply chain fragility, and financial crime vulnerabilities, our expert panel will explore the impact these intersecting areas have in shaping due diligence, monitoring, and resource allocation.

Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding of how geopolitical dynamics can rapidly escalate ABC exposure and ideas on ways to build more resilient, forward-looking ABC programmes in an increasingly unpredictable world.
