Investigations and monitorship support
When an organisation faces allegations of fraud, bribery or corruption it needs to understand, in detail, the full nature of the allegations and the extent to which any wrongdoing may have taken place.
What we do
GoodCorporation's extensive anti-bribery and corruption experience make it well placed to provide a range of monitorship, debarment and investigation support to help companies manage these difficult challenges to their business.
Investigations and monitoring support
GoodCorporation works with companies facing investigation, monitorship or debarment to test, strengthen and evaluate their compliance programmes. Our detailed investigation work enables companies to understand the full extent of any wrongdoing. It is also used to provide the basis for subsequent decision-making and future actions.
We work with companies who are under investigation by regulatory authorities. We perform the duties of a monitor to assess, revise and strengthen practices and procedures to help deliver sustained and continuous improvement. We help design and implement 'corporate renewal' programmes and use our benchmarking to evidence that improvements are being made over time.
GoodCorporation is experienced in working with regulatory bodies. Please see the table to our left for examples of the industries we have worked in.

Building a defence when facing prosecution for corruption or debarment
Building a defence when facing prosecution or debarment is a critical and time consuming exercise. In our podcast below, Leo Martin explains how GoodCorporation's range of services can help.
The podcast explores:
- The use of benchmarking to provide evidence that adequate procedures are in place to prevent bribery
- Applying GoodCorporation's integrity analysis methodology to demonstrate that local controls to prevent fraud, corruption, collusion and coercive practices are in place and functioning.
This includes:
- Due diligence record checks
- Supplier payment checks
- Bank statement reconciliation
- Agent and intermediary vetting
- Customer documentation, and
- Review of registers
We couldn't believe the speed and responsiveness of your team. Everyone was extremely well briefed, knowledgeable and engaged.
