OECD Global Anti-Corruption & Integrity Forum
30 March 2017 • 3:00AM CEST
NRGI's Daniel Kaufmann, representing an Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) high-level advisory group, presented OECD Secretary-General Angel Gurría with recommendations for fighting corruption. He made remarks during the forum’s opening session, which also featured remarks from Gurría, Nigerian Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo and Slovakian Prime Minister Robert Fico.
Following the conference, an independent group of leading anti-corruption and integrity experts recommended doing more to enforce and develop anti-corruption standards and enhance collaboration with other international organizations in a report on ways the OECD can strengthen its vital work in combating bribery and promoting integrity.
In the report, the High-Level Advisory Group to the Secretary-General applauds the OECD’s leadership in key aspects of the global fight against corruption, notably through the Convention on Combating Bribery of Foreign Public Officials in International Business Transactions (Anti-Bribery Convention), as well as its work promoting public sector integrity, including in public procurement.
