Why Ethical Procurement Matters for UAE Organizations
Strict standards against corruption exist in government organizations in Abu Dhabi. At the same time, private companies operating in DIFC come under increasing pressure to report according to the ESG standards. A single instance of conflict of interest that is not properly managed might harm the entire project and the company’s reputation as well.
