Domain 1: ABMS Fundamentals 8.00% of exam
Question 1
A licensing authority lawfully offers priority processing for €75. The tariff is published, the service is available on identical terms to all eligible applicants, and payment goes directly to the authority against an official receipt. Which fact distinguishes this charge from a facilitation payment?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D - It is an authorized agency charge rather than an unofficial payment for routine action
Domain 2: ABMS Requirements 4.00% of exam
Question 2
An organization already uses controlled documents, training records, and internal audits within its quality management system. The implementation team wants to reuse these processes for its anti-bribery management system rather than establish parallel systems. What would make that approach defensible?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C - Embed anti-bribery criteria and responsibilities in the shared processes, retaining evidence of their operation
Domain 3: ABMS Initiation and Planning 42.00% of exam
Question 3
In a small business, one accounts clerk can create suppliers, approve their invoices, and release payments. A second employee reconciles the bank account each month. The managing director can review payment evidence electronically but cannot take over routine processing. Which redesign most directly prevents the clerk from creating and paying a fictitious supplier?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A - Require the director's independent approval of supplier creation and payment release, supported by verified transaction evidence
Question 4
Before tender bids are opened, an evaluator discloses that a sibling owns one bidding firm. The evaluator has not accessed any bids, and there is no evidence of information sharing. Procurement rules permit a related-party bid if the conflict is effectively managed; a qualified replacement evaluator is available. How should the evaluation proceed?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B - Replace the evaluator, document the conflict, and assess the bid independently against the published criteria
Question 5
A company calculates bribery risk as likelihood × consequence. Its rules permit scores 1-4 with routine controls, require enhanced controls and compliance concurrence for 5-9, and prohibit new commitments at 10-25. An agent initially scored likelihood 4 and consequence 4. Tested controls now support likelihood 2; consequence remains 4. A further, unimplemented control is expected to lower likelihood to 1. No other approval conditions or unresolved red flags apply. What is the current decision?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D - Score 8: proceed only with enhanced controls and compliance concurrence, based on the controls already tested
Question 6
A subsidiary is defining the scope of its ABMS to include all of its sales operations. The parent company's shared-service centre, outside the proposed organizational boundary, pays the subsidiary's sales agents. The project team proposes omitting those payments because the subsidiary does not process them. Which scope treatment is appropriate?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B - Control the shared payment interface and secure evidence access without bringing every parent-company activity within scope
Domain 4: ABMS Implementation 32.66% of exam
Question 7
A manufacturer is considering an agent for a public infrastructure tender. Name screening found no adverse information, and two customers confirmed satisfactory work. The agent supplies its parent company's ISO 37001 certificate, but identifies its owners only as nominees and requests an unusually large success fee for "local support." Which enquiry would best address the unresolved bribery risks?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C - Who ultimately owns or controls the proposed agent, and whether defined deliverables justify the unusually large success fee
Question 8
Two employees are detained at an isolated checkpoint. An armed guard demands cash for their release and threatens immediate violence. They cannot safely leave or contact the company. The company's emergency procedure puts physical safety first. Which instruction should their anti-bribery training have prepared them to follow?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A - Make the necessary payment to secure release, then accurately document and promptly report it once safe
Domain 5: ABMS Evaluation 8.66% of exam
Question 9
During a quarter, 60 new agent contracts were signed, each requiring due-diligence approval before signature. Of these, 48 were approved before signature, eight afterward, and four remained unapproved at quarter-end. Another ten proposed engagements had not reached signature. Company policy requires a management action plan when quarterly on-time approval compliance is below 90%. Which result belongs in the performance report?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B - 80.0% compliance; an action plan is required for approvals missing or completed after signature
Domain 6: ABMS Improvement 5.33% of exam
Question 10
An investigation finds repeated use of agents before required approval. Staff can explain the procedure and have enough time to complete it, but sales managers direct them to start early. Managers receive their full quarterly bonus for signed contracts regardless of onboarding compliance. The affected engagements have now been reviewed and brought under control. Which corrective action addresses the cause supported by these findings?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C - Make compliant onboarding a condition of bonus payment and hold managers accountable for bypasses
