The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) has a mandate to investigate and tackle corruption domestically and Internationally. The RCMP has exclusive jurisdiction to investigate international corruption under the Corruption of Foreign Public Officials Act (CFPOA).
Part of the RCMP’s international mandate under the CFPOA is to conduct investigations that may involve:
- Allegations that a Canadian person/business has bribed a foreign public official;
- Allegations that a foreign person has bribed a Canadian public official that may have international repercussions;
- Allegations that a foreign official has secreted or laundered money in, or through, Canada; or
- Requests for international assistance.
Prevention is key to fighting corruption. As such, the RCMP is committed to working with industry partners, civil society and other stakeholders to prevent and detect international corruption.
