Programme Overview

✅ Core Purpose: Designed to equip board members and senior management with a deep understanding of Section 17A of the MACC Act 2009, which holds commercial organizations liable if an associated person commits corruption.

✅ The Corporate Liability Concept: Focuses on the legal shift where companies are now held criminally liable for bribery acts committed by employees or third parties for the organization’s benefit.

✅ Statutory Defence: Centered on the implementation of “Adequate Procedures” as the only legal defense available to the organization and its directors to avoid prosecution.

✅ Regulatory Impact: Highlights the severe consequences of non-compliance, including massive fines (minimum RM1 million) and potential imprisonment for top-level management.

What you will learn ?

✅ Section 17A Provisions: Understanding the scope of the Act, including the definition of “associated persons” such as employees, agents, and subsidiaries.

✅ The T.R.U.S.T. Principles: A comprehensive breakdown of the Prime Minister’s Department’s guidelines for Adequate Procedures:

  • T – Top Level Commitment

  • R – Risk Assessment

  • U – Undertake Control Measures

  • S – Systematic Review, Monitoring & Enforcement

  • T – Training & Communication

✅ Penalty Framework: Insight into the “10x the bribe value” fine and how personal liability is “deemed” for directors and officers unless due diligence is proven.

✅ Whistleblowing & Due Diligence: Establishing secure reporting channels and conducting high-level due diligence on business partners and vendors.

Why it matters ?

✅ Director Protection: Shielding directors and senior management from being personally held liable for the corrupt actions of subordinates.

✅ Financial Safeguarding: Preventing a single corrupt act from triggering multimillion-ringgit fines that could cripple the organization.

✅ Brand Integrity: Demonstrating a “Zero Tolerance” policy for corruption to maintain investor confidence and ethical business standing.

✅ Operational Continuity: Ensuring the organization remains eligible to bid for government contracts and operate without legal interruptions.
