14 BACKGROUND Example of Conflict of Interest Project Clean Key issues: A conflict of interest existed but had not been formally managed The opportunity existed for fraudulent and corrupt conduct to occur The client couldn t pursue disciplinary action due to lack of policy, procedure, training and condoning of the relationship for several years The whistleblowing disclosure including aspects malicious and vexations intent on part of one whistleblowing, using the other two for influence Lack of evidence that allegations made in good faith New claims of bullying & harassment now against Senior Management Poor overall culture created opportunities and ongoing disruption

31 IMPLEMENTING AN ABAC PROGRAM 1. Top level commitment challenges Risk of penalty rationalised based on profit, competition and perception of "accepted practice" in different Countries/markets Ability to influence change in behaviour: "A 2014 survey carried out by TI has found that one in five of the surveyed young people between the ages of 15 and 30,1 in Fiji, Indonesia, South Korea and Sri Lanka, would find it acceptable to lie and cheat to get rich. Between 14 and 52 per cent of the young people surveyed in each of the four countries think that people have more chances of achieving success in life if they lie, cheat, break the law and act corruptly." Source: Asia Pacific youth: integrity in crisis 27 May 2014
