Anti-corruption Collective Action: Regulatory and normative approaches – session 1 at ICAC 2024

Описание: The transformative power of Collective Action to raise standards of business integrity and level the playing field for fair competition has been increasingly acknowledged in recent years. Leading international organisations and standards, such as the 2021 OECD Anti-Bribery Recommendation and the 2023 OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises on Responsible Business Conduct, have promoted and called for anti-corruption Collective Action.

In line with these recommendations, numerous governments have embraced Collective Action as an innovative, flexible and collaborative approach to prevent corruption in their National Anti-Corruption Strategies and other strategic commitments and policies, in some cases even anchoring Collective Action approaches in their legal framework.

This session during the 5th International Collective Action Conference held in Basel, Switzerland from 24-25 June 2024, explored the role of the public sector in supporting and participating in Collective Action and shared experiences, lessons learned and good practices for institutionalising platforms of engagement for the private sector; incentivising the private sector to better address corruption risks through Collective Action.
