Using the certified Business Keeper Monitoring System (BKMS® System), an internet-based communication platform, whistleblowers (employees in companies and administrations as well as citizens) can report irregularities, abuses and risks worldwide on a 24/7 basis. The whistleblower decides whether he wishes to remain anonymous, in order to protect himself from possible negative personal consequences, or whether he wishes to reveal his identity.
At the same time the examiner (compliance officers, corruption agents, ombudsmen, audits and examinations within the company or administration) receives the report and can enter into an anonymous dialogue with the whistleblower via this platform. In this dialogue the whistleblower is encouraged to make reports and is kept informed on the report’s status. The whistleblower’s availability for further questions can help accelerate internal investigations and prevent misunderstandings.
This is because investigations often reach a point where additional information is lacking. By using the BKMS® System the whistleblower’s insider knowledge can continually be put to use despite his anonymity.
The BKMS® system has a repressive as well as a preventive effect in the organisation.
Business Keeper AG, as provider of the system, as well as any other third parties are unable to access any information on their customers’ lead data.
The BKMS® system`s use is based on demand – no software implementation is necessary. It may be provided in every language. The whistleblowing process is already available in the following languages:
 Bulgarian  Chinese  Croatian  Czech  Dutch  German  Greek  English  French  Hungarian  Indonesian  Italian  Macedonian  Montenegrian  Polish
 Portuguese  Romanian  Russian  Slovakian  Spanish
Another unique selling proposition is the selective gathering of information. Whistleblowers are allowed to file leads based only on the categories, which the client has designated.
