That’s why we partnered with Santander UK and UN Global Compact Network UK last month to explore the crucial role business leaders play in anti-corruption efforts. Working with companies at the forefront of anti-corruption efforts to better detect, prevent and respond to corruption has never been more important. #IACD2024 #AntiCorruptionDay
