Date: March 8, 2007
Time: 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM Hong Kong Time

Corruption gives rise to serious consquences for companies and administrations aside from outright criminality. It increases costs for companies striving to compete fairly, and impedes growth in developing economies. This webcast draws information from the joint survey efforts of The Conference Board and the Ethics and Compliance Officers' Association capacity to obtain detailed descriptions on anti-corruption practices from leading companies. Recent approaches have shifted focus from demand to supply, and a growing number of companies now recognize that strategies to control the supply side may be the key to combating corrupt practices.

This webcast will enable participants to:

* Benchmark their company's anti-corruption efforts against those of the 165 Asian, North American and European survey participants
* Share information about the key challenges that companies face in designing, implementing, and monitoring anti-corruption programs for effectiveness
* Document changes and improvements in company anti-corruption programs since The Conference Board's 2000 research report on company programs to resist corrupt practices
