Re-Imagining Corporate Accountability on a Multilateral Scale
This white paper looks at some successful anti-corruption innovations and determine how they can be adapted through new ideas to re-imagine corporate accountability on a multilateral scale. It is a thought-piece that was written with two goals in mind. Firstly, to examine some of the innovative tools that have been utilized to help eradicate corruption before it happens and to determine whether they can be successfully replicated. Secondly, to advance the discussion and illuminate new ways that multilateral instruments, such as the OECD Convention, can be relied upon to achieve a higher state of corporate anti-corruption compliance.
Transparency International, the Berlin-based global anti-corruption organization, has just released its twelfth progress report (the 2018 Exporting Corruption Report) on the enforcement of the OECD Convention on Combating Bribery of Foreign Public Officials in International Business Transactions (the OECD Convention) . This report follows on 11 reports published annually from 2005 to 2015. It is an occasion to reflect on what has been achieved by the OECD Convention so far and what more can be expected in the coming years.
