This update would be of interest to individuals and organisations in Singapore who are doing business in UK or with UK entities.

Bribery is taking on an increasingly cross-border character. The latest country to take steps to tackle this problem of cross-border bribery is the UK with the UK Bribery Act 2010 (“UK Act”).
