Introduction from Gretta Fenner, Managing Director, Basel Institute on Governance:

I am pleased to share with you the latest news from the Basel Institute and our work to fight corruption and promote good governance.

Find out about our new Basel Open Intelligence tool, a “super-search engine” to boost open-source research in due diligence and financial investigations. We have also recently launched an interactive website for our research on informal governance and corruption.

We’re also delighted to report on progress in several key initiatives, including our High Level Reporting Mechanism, ICAR training programmes and efforts to strengthen Public Finance Management in Peru.

For a more detailed look at our impact last year and our plans for the future, please download our Annual Report.

I look forward to your feedback and queries, and I hope to see you at upcoming events – especially our International Collective Action conference in November.
