About Us
We are a group of expert practitioners based in Malaysia focused on building companies and countries of integrity, well protected against the destructive impact of corruption. Our clients range from major international conglomerates and government agencies to SMEs. We have seen that a strategic and well-executed set of quality integrity measures supported by good leadership can effectively prevent, detect and respond to corruption. As experienced implementers of the ISO 37001: 2016 Anti-Bribery Management System and ‘adequate procedures’, we are experts in anti-corruption practices and the design and implementation of corporate integrity systems for corporations of all sizes, as well as entire nations.
Once organisations are able to successfully defend their assets from the effects of corruption and bribery risk, we know that they can continue performing and delivering on their goals and targets consistently.
Trident Integrity Solutions Sdn Bhd was founded in 2015 by CEO, Dr Mark Lovatt, who recognised the crucial importance of high-quality, affordable expertise to protect organisations of all types from the effects of corruption.
