Offsets represent one of the most opaque practices in the defence industry. The frequent lack of transparency and oversight makes them one of the most profound areas of corruption risk for the sector. This risk category contains 4 indicators, covering public disclosures of specific topics such as a company’s policy on offsets; due diligence on offset projects and beneficiaries; transparency of contracted offset brokers; and transparency of beneficiaries of indirect offset projects.
For more information on this risk category, see our summary page on The 10 Key Risk Categories or to view the specific criteria see the DCI Indicators.
‘Offsets’ in the defence sector are defined as arrangements in which the purchasing government of the importing country requires the supplying company of the exporting country to reinvest some proportion of the contract in the importing country.
Each company’s overall score is broken down into two question categories – those measuring ‘policy’ and those measuring ‘transparency’.
‘Policy’ indicators relate to the standard and amount of publicly available information on the company’s policies and procedures that aim to reduce the risk of corruption. There are 37 indicators that fall into this category, plus three that include both ‘policy’ and ‘transparency’ elements. For more information, see the DCI Methods Paper.
Each company’s overall score is broken down into two question categories – those measuring ‘policy’ and those measuring ‘transparency’.
‘Transparency’ indicators relate to the public provision of data that can help mitigate corruption risk in the sector overall. There are 16 indicators that fall into this category, plus three that include both ‘policy’ and ‘transparency’ elements. For more information, see the DCI Methods Paper.
For each risk category, companies receive their score in the form of raw ‘points’ and an equivalent score out of 100. Providing a score out of 100 helps improve comparability across categories and companies.

There is evidence that the company publishes some information about the beneficiaries of its offset projects. The company indicates that its main offset or industrial participation commitments stem from the Presidency of Defense Industries in Turkey; the company provides some other information about its industrial cooperation projects associated with the Electronic Warfare Business but it is not clear whether these represent direct or indirect offsets. The company receives a score of ‘1’ because it does not provide full details about the beneficiaries of its indirect offsets in a clear way; for example, the company does not list the name of the company or organisation receiving the investment and the country in which the recipient entity is based. The information provided is briefly mentioned in the Annual Report, so there is also no evidence that this represents a complete list of all the company’s indirect offset projects. |

Nammo AS | 1/2
There is some evidence that the company has a procedure in place to address the corruption risks associated with offset contracting. The company states that the Group-level Business Development Department handles all offset agreements and indicates that the Legal & Compliance department handles all due diligence and monitoring of such agreements. The company receives a score of ‘1’ because there is no clear evidence that the employees responsible for handling offset agreements receive tailored anti-bribery and corruption training based on the potential corruption risks associated with offsets. |
1/2
Based on publicly available information, there is evidence that the company has a formal procedure in place to conduct risk-based anti-bribery and corruption due diligence on all aspects of its offset obligations. The company indicates that this due diligence process includes ensuring that any offset projects or partners align with its group business strategy. There is some evidence that the company’s offset due diligence process includes establishing and verifying beneficial ownership information, however it is noted that this evidence primarily relates to sales representatives and is therefore indirect. However, the company receives a score of ‘1’ because there is no clear evidence that the due diligence process for offset obligations includes checks on any conflicts of interest associated with the beneficiaries. Moreover, although there is some evidence to indicate that due diligence is repeated every two years, the company’s publicly available information indicates that this primarily relates to sales representatives and therefore it is not explicitly clear that the same standards are upheld for all aspects of all offset obligations. |
2/2
The company publishes a statement on its website to indicate that it does not employ offset agents or brokers as part of its industrial cooperation programme, choosing instead to operate directly with authorities and partner companies. Since the company has adopted this as its publicly available position, the company therefore receives a score of ‘2’. |

ThyssenKrupp AG | 1/2
The company recognises the corruption risks associated with offset contracting and there is evidence that there is a specific department, the Industrial Cooperation Department, involved in managing the company’s offset obligations across divisions and for the duration of the project lifecycle. The company also states that its business unit most commonly involved in offset contracting, the Marine Systems business unit, has a specific department dedicated to overseeing and managing all aspects of its offset obligations. However, it is unclear whether the staff of this department is given anti-corruption training specific to their role. |

There is evidence that the company refreshes its due diligence on offset service providers every two years.

Furthermore, the company suggests that it will not disclose information about its offset brokers going forward. |

Points
POINTS: 0/2
This question is looking for evidence that the company has established processes for addressing the corruption risks associated with offset contracting, for example through policies, procedures and contractual terms that increase transparency and accountability in its offset programme. Such measures might include incorporating offset contracting into normal business conduct requirements, business ethics practices and tailored training programmes.
Offsets represent one of the most opaque practices in the defence sector. Many importing governments require offsets when purchasing defence equipment, systems or services, yet the lack of transparency and scrutiny around this practice presents a number of significant corruption risks at each stage of the procurement process. For example, the offset could be tailored to influence the competitive decision for awarding the main contract, the offset itself could function as a bribe, or the offset contract could be inflated to account for or mask the existence of bribes.
Although offset obligations are often determined by the purchasing government, there are steps that defence companies can take to increase transparency and mitigate the associated corruption risks. Formally recognising the corruption risks associated with offsets in the company’s policies and procedures is the first step. It is also essential that a dedicated team, body or department is established to provide oversight and monitoring of the company’s offset activities; including the number of ongoing and outstanding obligations, the value of these contracts, the deliverables under each obligation, and the specific locations and activities of these agreements. This team should receive dedicated training on the bribery and corruption risks associated with offsets, so that they can effectively monitor the activities and flag risks where they might arise. The company should ensure that these standards are communicated to and implemented among the subcontractors, as well as agreed to by local partners and third parties.
Score: 2/2
There is evidence that the company has a policy and procedure in place to address the corruption risks associated with offset contracting and ensures any offset partners adhere to its anti-bribery and corruption standards through appropriate contractual clauses. The company has a dedicated body, department or team responsible for the monitoring and oversight of the company’s offset activities throughout the lifecycle of each project. All employees within this body, department or team receive tailored anti-bribery and corruption training based on the potential corruption risks associated with offsets.
Or, the company addresses the corruption risks associated with offset contracting by explicitly stating that it does not enter into contracts that require an offset obligation.
