Anti-corruption shouldn’t rely on hope and handbooks.
Sapin II requires French organizations to implement structured anti-corruption programs. Empowered helps you manage policies, controls, risk assessments, and training – all in one platform built for oversight.
Understanding Sapin II
Anti-corruption compliance, made mandatory.
Sapin II requires large French companies to implement internal procedures to prevent and detect corruption. The law outlines eight key requirements – ranging from risk mapping and code of conduct implementation to training, whistleblower systems, and control testing.
- Applies to companies with over 500 employees and €100M in revenue.
- Requires a formal anti-corruption framework, with documented risk mapping and internal controls.
- Enforced by the French Anti-Corruption Agency (AFA) through audits and penalties.
Integrity Can’t Be Assumed - It Has to Be Managed
Without structure, anti-corruption programs are inconsistent and hard to prove. Sapin II challenges organizations to formalize their approach to integrity, but many struggle to document and monitor it effectively.
- Helps prevent ethical breaches and regulatory penalties.
- Demonstrates accountability to boards, regulators, and the public.
- Supports a culture of compliance and ethical behavior.
