What are the risks of not having Conflict of Interest Management Software?
In recent years there has been an increase in reported issues relating to conflicts in the workplace, posing a threat to an organisation’s reputation and its ability to make independent business decisions. These threats can exist at all levels of the organisation and lead to fines and other market challenges.
Without an effective means of recording Conflicts of Interest, organisations run the risk of decisions being made for personal gain, rather than to meet its targets and strategies. A lack of clarity over personal circumstances could lead to appointments into decision-making roles which might have a long term detrimental impact.
The CoreStream platform allows organisations to quickly embed the necessary behaviours and policies into its procedures, offering early insights into potential issues which might threaten their operation.
