Sales commission in itself is not a corrupt practise. Lots of corporations feel fine with doing it. But it has become a smokescreen for corrupt payments, where a company can be excluded from a tender if they don’t agree to pay the bribe (masquerading as commission). 

 I think SAP is doing the right thing by excluding some countries who fall below the standard. Personally I think 45 is quite high. I was thinking it will be around thirty.
