Strengthening Integrity in State-Owned Enterprises Through Peer Learning
Corruption in state-owned enterprises has a unique ability to undermine governments,
markets and citizens’ wellbeing. While international standards promote integrity in
the state-owned sector, their implementation remains a challenge. This handbook describes
an innovative peer-learning programme – Compliance Without Borders – and its contributions
to strengthening anti-corruption compliance in state-owned enterprises. It explains
the benefits of galvanising the private sector to work with their state-owned counterparts
in preventing corruption and levelling the playing field. By detailing how this new
pair are successfully collaborating, the handbook also encourages others to join in
leading by example.
