The MACC’s Corporate Liability on Corruptions

The MACC’s Corporate Liability on Corruptions

Corporate Liability on Corruption Provisions came into effect on June 1, 2020 under the New Section 17A Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (Amendment) Act 2018, which holds commercial organizations liable for their employees and/or associates’ corrupt practices carried out for the organisation’s benefit or advantage

Essentially, when a person associated with a company commits a corrupt act to obtain a business advantage, this will expose the company to committing a criminal offence. This will then have serious repercussions on the directors and management of the company. All commercial organizations in Malaysia are affected by the Malaysia Anti-Corruption Commission (Amendment) Act 2018. Breach of this provision can lead to a minimum fine of RM1 million and/or a jail term of up to 20 years.

When this offence is committed by a commercial organization, the Director, Controller, Officer, Partner and persons managing the affairs (Management) of the company are deemed to have committed the offence.
