In 2019, by order of the Center for Standardization and Metrology under the Ministry of Economy and Commerce of the Kyrgyz Republic (Kyrgyzstandard), KMS ISO 37001:2019, “Anti-bribery management systems — Requirements with guidance for use,” was adopted as a national standardization document.

KMS ISO 37001:2019 was adopted on the basis of the international standard ISO 37001:2016, “Anti-bribery management systems — Requirements with guidance for use,” and sets out requirements and recommendations for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continually improving an anti-bribery management system within an organization.

ISO 37001 is an international standard aimed at the systematic management of bribery risks. It provides a set of organizational and management measures designed to prevent and detect bribery, respond to such incidents, and address the associated corruption risks.

In the Kyrgyz Republic, matters relating to preventing and countering corruption are governed by the legislation of the Kyrgyz Republic, including the Law of the Kyrgyz Republic “On Countering Corruption,” other regulatory legal acts in this field, and the State Strategy of the Kyrgyz Republic on Countering Corruption for 2025–2030, approved by Decree No. 137 of the President of the Kyrgyz Republic dated June 5, 2024.

KMS ISO 37001:2019 does not replace the legislation of the Kyrgyz Republic and does not alter the prohibitions, obligations, liability measures, or other legal requirements established by law in the field of countering corruption.

The primary purpose of KMS ISO 37001:2019 is to provide organizations with a systematic management tool for identifying, assessing, and reducing bribery risks, as well as for establishing an appropriate organizational environment and internal control mechanisms.
