Self-disclosure is a company's voluntary report of suspected misconduct to an authority before it is discovered. Policies commonly offer reduced penalties for timely disclosure and cooperation.
The decision to disclose weighs the credit available against the consequences of exposing the conduct. Authorities state their expectations in published policies, and outcomes are visible in the resolved cases.
For counterparties, a disclosure can be an early signal of liability and a sign that a resolution is being negotiated.
Self-disclosure is not immunity. Credit is discretionary and depends on timing, completeness and cooperation.
