ISO 37001 certification in Nuremberg at a glance
Exporters sell through agents, and agents are where bribery risk tends to hide. Nuremberg's industry exports more than half of what it makes, according to the city, and its inland port and logistics sector move cargo across borders through forwarders, brokers and subcontractors. ISO 37001 gives an organisation an anti-bribery management system: risk assessment, policy and leadership, due diligence on business associates, controls over gifts and payments, reporting channels and investigation. An accredited certification body issues the certificate, which supports a compliance programme without giving legal protection. Served from Sterling's Frankfurt office, Sterling designs controls around your sales channels and third-party payments. Criminal law and liability are outside this page and belong with your counsel.

ISO 37001 in Nuremberg: questions clients ask
Which Nuremberg exporters find ISO 37001 useful?
Those selling through agents or distributors in markets where bribery risk is high, or serving customers whose compliance policies ask for evidence. For others a sound code of conduct and due diligence may be enough. Ask key customers and your insurers what they expect.
What are typical ISO 37001 controls for a freight intermediary?
Due diligence on subcontractors and customs agents, rules on gifts and facilitation payments, approval limits, payment controls, training and a reporting channel. Records must show the controls operating. An independent auditor tests them, which is the main difference from simply issuing a policy.
