Bribery and corruption can take many shapes and forms in an
organization. This list can be really (but not surprisingly) long.
It need not be typical doling out of cash but could be in the
nature of under or over-invoicing, facilitation payments, inflated
commission payments, unauthorized rebates. It could also be
non-monetary favors like giving gifts to an individual or his
family members, free transport, holiday packages, discounts,
employment opportunities, offering directorships, arranging
boarding, extending hospitality, undertaking transactions at
non-arms length. The more structured form could also be in the
nature of kickbacks, political contribution, or for that matter CSR
compliance adherence, spending on social causes, and giving
charitable donations.
