TI Cambodia - Training: Business Integrity & Compliance for Young Entrepreneurs
Venue. Transparency International Cambodia: # 9B, Street 466 corner 63, Sangkat Tunle Bassac, Chamkarmon, Phnom Penh
Date. Feb, 28 2015 Time.
Address. Phnom Penh
Transparency InternationaI Cambodia is organising a free in-house training session on business integrity, corporate integrity systems and tax compliance.
Through its Business Integrity Programme, TI Cambodia works together with the private sector to support companies’ anti-corruption efforts in Cambodia and advocate for a cleaner business environment.
Small and medium-sized entreprises, which are often led by young entrepreneurs, are driving Cambodia’s economy. Yet pervasive corruption and bribery have limited their ability to grow and achieve their full profit potential. Young entrepreneurs often lack the leverage and compliance systems of multinational companies and therefore face more challenges in resisting bribery and corruption while trying to ensure a good balance sheet.
The training thus seeks to equip young entrepreneurs—as well as all other interested individuals—with the knowledge and tools necessary to boost their tax compliance and reduce their exposure to corruption.
Guest Speaker: Mr. Clint O’Connell, Legal & Tax Advisor at VDB Loi.
