It has also given impetus to the narrative that anti-corruption compliance programmes are inevitably costly, potentially ineffective and bureaucratic. \n\nThis ignores many of the positive advances in compliance that have been made in recent years, as well as the growing body of evidence supporting the business case for compliance.\n\nThis Quick Guide covers five broad areas in which mature and well-constructed ethics and compliance systems can benefit businesses even in the face of an uncertain regulatory and enforcement framework. It is based on a roundtable convened by the Basel Institute on Governance and bilateral discussions with key figures in the business and anti-corruption community.\n\n### About this Quick Guide\n\nYou are free to share and republish this work under a \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fcreativecommons.org\u002Flicenses\u002Fby-nc-nd\u002F4.0\u002F\">Creative Commons BY-NC-ND 4.0 Licence\u003C\u002Fa>.

Paper 37: The Green Corruption paradox: Natural resource management and environmental corruption in Indonesia","This Working Paper details the findings of a survey of Indonesians’ perceptions of corruption, the economy and the environment in July 2021.\n\nThe survey was a joint initiative of the \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fbaselgovernance.org\u002Fgreen-corruption\">Green Corruption\u003C\u002Fa> team at the Basel Institute on Governance and leading Indonesian pollster Lembaga Survei Indonesia (LSI). It consisted of a national public opinion survey covering 2,580 respondents and in-depth interviews with 30 private-sector representatives working in various natural resource sectors.\n\nThe survey reveals what we call the Green Corruption paradox: Conflicting, and arguably mutually exclusive, views on all three topics can co-exist. Despite seeing the presence of and being deeply concerned about corruption and environmental degradation, people tend to focus on livelihoods when times are hard. \n\nPeople also, according to the survey data, favour economic structures that appear to channel the benefits of natural resource utilisation more directly to citizens. In Indonesia, this means rejecting private companies – particularly foreign-owned – in favour of state-owned enterprises (SOEs) and people’s cooperatives.\n\nThe report ends with five key recommendations that can inform Indonesian policy and the interventions of donors and civil society organisations concerned with conservation, anti-corruption and sustainable development.\n\n### About this Working Paper\n\nThis research was made possible with the generous support of the American people through the USAID CEGAH programme.\n\nThe publication is part of the Basel Institute on Governance Working Paper Series, ISSN: 2624-9650.\n\nIt is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International License (\u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fcreativecommons.org\u002Flicenses\u002Fby-nc-nd\u002F4.0\u002F\">CC BY-NC-ND 4.0\u003C\u002Fa>).\n\nSuggested citation: Grossmann, Juhani, Rizka Halida, and Tara Suryandari. 2021. “The Green Corruption paradox: Natural resource management and environmental corruption in Indonesia.” *Working Paper* 37, Basel Institute on Governance and LSI.

Paper 29: Recovering assets in support of the SDGs – from soft to hard assets for development","This Working Paper aims to contribute to the international policy dialogue on the link between asset recovery and countries’ pursuit of the Sustainable Development Goals.\n\nIt contends that supporting countries in recovering stolen assets and promoting sustainable development are mutually reinforcing. It also aims to correct the false reputation of asset recovery as a very technical legalistic field of development cooperation, and to generate broader understanding of the far-reaching role that asset recovery can play to foster development.\n\nThe paper argues that helping countries recover stolen assets, anchored in target 16.4 of the SDGs, can mobilise important resources to finance development or poverty reduction efforts. \n\nIn addition, it explores how asset recovery plays a critical role in strengthening some of the key foundations of sustainable development, such as the rule of law and strong, transparent and accountable institutions. \n\nCombining “hard assets” in terms of actual assets recovered and the “soft assets” that are needed to do so effectively, ranging from the capacity of law enforcement institutions to the political will to fight criminal networks, provides a powerful foundation for sustainable development.\n\n### About this Working Paper\n\nThis paper is part of the Basel Institute on Governance Working Paper Series, \u003Ca href=\"\u002Fpublications?type[]=255\">ISSN: 2624-9650\u003C\u002Fa>.\n\nIt was drafted by the \u003Ca href=\"\u002Fnode\u002F25\">International Centre for Asset Recovery (ICAR)\u003C\u002Fa> Secretariat and has received inputs from representatives of the UK’s Department for International Development, the Swiss Development Cooperation, the Norwegian Agency for Development Cooperation, and the governments of Liechtenstein and the Bailiwick of Jersey.\n\nIt was discussed with the above representatives at the meeting of ICAR core donors on 28 November 2018 in St Helier, Jersey.

of the Expert Advisory Group on Anti-Corruption, Transparency, and Integrity in Latin America and the Caribbean","Recent corruption scandals have shown the negative effects that corruption may have in countries around the world, including those of the Latin American and Caribbean region. The Inter-American Development Bank has therefore convened an independent group of experts composed by eight governance and anti-corruption scholars and practitioners to identify innovative and effective approaches to combat corruption in the region.\n\nDrawing on the members’ decades of experience, this report analyzes the key features of corruption in the region and proposes an ambitious agenda toward more systemic transformation. The report targets a series of measures aimed at strengthening the rule of law and public institutions, addressing state capture, and helping to meet citizens’ aspirations for sustainable and inclusive development.\n\nHence, the report recommends a multi-layered approach that requires collective action by governments, the private sector, civil society, and international institutions to tackle the roots of corruption and capture through global, regional, and domestic initiatives.","English, Spanish",2018,"Inter-American Development Bank","2018-11-01",[30,468],"Public

Paper 21: Globale Finanzflüsse und nachhaltige Entwicklung: Handlungsmöglichkeiten der Schweiz aus Sicht der Entwicklungspolitik","Im Rahmen von UNO und OECD diskutiert die internationale Gemeinschaft zurzeit intensiv, warum die meisten Entwicklungsländer nicht über ausreichend Ressourcen zur Finanzierung der für sie notwendigen Investitionen und ihrer öffentlichen Dienstleistungen verfügen. Dabei fällt das Augenmerk jeweils schnell auf die Ausgestaltung des internationalen Finanz- und Steuersystems. Mit welcher Art Investitionen kann man eine nachhaltige Entwicklung fördern? Wie kann der chronische Abfluss von finanziellen Ressourcen (namentlich aus Rohstoff-reichen Ländern) – oftmals als unlautere und illegale Finanzflüsse (illicit financial flows) umschrieben – reduziert werden? Welche Rolle spielt schliesslich die öffentliche Entwicklungshilfe in diesem Gesamtbild?\n\nDie Direktion für Entwicklung und Zusammenarbeit (DEZA) hat am 29. Oktober 2015 mit Unterstützung des Basel Institute on Governance und unter der Leitung von Prof. Mark Pieth eine Fachtagung‚ Globale Finanzflüsse für eine nachhaltige Entwicklung – Handlungsmöglichkeiten der Schweiz aus Sicht der Entwicklungspolitik‘ durchgeführt.

the sake of sustainability, clear out corruption – here's how accountants can play a role","Blog","_Economic crimes are significant obstacles to the UN Sustainable Development Goals, and professional accountants can play a pivotal role to clear a path. This guest blog by [Kevin Dancey](https:\u002F\u002Fwww.ifac.org\u002Fwho-we-are\u002Fleadership\u002Fkevin-dancey), CEO of the International Federation of Accountants (IFAC), marks the launch of IFAC’s new Action Plan for Fighting Corruption and Economic Crime._\n\nIn 2015 all United Nations Member States adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, a shared blueprint for peace and prosperity for people and the planet. Its 17 United Nation Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) present an urgent call to action for all companies, institutions and nations to take steps by 2030 that improve health and education, reduce inequality, and spur economic growth – all while tackling climate change. Yet in 2022, comprehensive global progress on the SDGs remains elusive.\n\nIt has become clear that corruption has presented – and will continue to present – a major obstacle to fully delivering meaningful progress against all 17 SDGs.\n\nCorruption and related economic crimes, such as money laundering, bribery, illicit financial flows, tax evasion and fraud, deeply affect both human and economic development. The [United Nations estimates](https:\u002F\u002Functad.org\u002Fwebflyer\u002Fworld-investment-report-2014) that USD 5 to 7 trillion worth of annual investments is needed to achieve the UN SDGs. And [USD 3.6 trillion](https:\u002F\u002Fnews.un.org\u002Fen\u002Fstory\u002F2018\u002F12\u002F1027971) is said to be lost to corruption each year.\n\nOn a regional scale, the presence of corruption hinders economic development by curtailing international investment and raising the cost of doing business. In short, citizens and legitimate businesses pay more money into a system in return for fewer of the services they need to survive comfortably.\n\nCorruption also affects all five pillars of sustainable development – people, planet, prosperity, peace, and partnerships. These crimes illegitimatize and erode trust in democratic institutions and government, inhibit social equality, and threaten economic growth.\n\nTo make the 2030 Agenda a reality, we must tackle corruption by promoting peaceful and inclusive societies, as stated in SDG 16.\n\nThe International Federation of Accountants (IFAC) knows that the accountancy profession has a direct role to play in this fight – by enhancing transparency and accountability in the public and private sectors and by supporting an ecosystem of key actors and policymakers that strive to counter corruption and economic crime at the global and domestic levels.\n\n### Accountants have a pivotal role to play in fighting corruption\n\nThe accountancy profession can drive the fight against corruption, as an essential aspect of strong and sustainable government institutions, financial markets, economies and society. As professional accountants hold key positions in, or as advisors to, nearly every business and public sector entity worldwide, we have extensive reach.\n\nThrough audits and advising organisations, accountants regularly help the public and private sectors, and society at large, in the fight against economic crimes including money laundering and fraud. The accountancy profession has long supported the development of smart regulatory frameworks that promote compliance by balancing the needs of all stakeholders.\n\nIn fact, many of the accountancy profession’s regular activities already contribute to fighting corruption and economic crime. The establishment of harmonised global standards for audit, ethics and public sector accounting, followed by the adaptation of those standards over time based on quantitative evidence, has aided organisations and governments in identifying and responding to financial crimes.\n\nWe must build upon this experience and coordinate a broader strategy to support an ecosystem of actors working together to fight corruption on a global scale.\n\nTo answer the call, IFAC has developed an [Action Plan for Fighting Corruption and Economic Crime](https:\u002F\u002Fwww.ifac.org\u002Fknowledge-gateway\u002Fbuilding-trust-ethics\u002Fdiscussion\u002Fifacs-action-plan-fighting-corruption-and-economic-crime) (our Action Plan), which provides a framework for the accountancy profession’s role in combatting corruption and economic crimes, thereby advancing the UN SDGs.\n\nIFAC’s proposed strategy rests on five pillars that are broad enough to support a consistent framework, even as specific actions taken by stakeholders to support the strategy evolve over time. The strategy’s five pillars include:\n\n*   Harnessing the full potential of education and professional development.\n*   Supporting global standards.\n*   Contributing to evidence-based policymaking.\n*   Strengthening our impact through engagement and partnership.\n*   Contributing our expertise through thought leadership and advocacy.\n\n### Developing a coordinated anti-corruption strategy\n\nThe ability to partner with a wide variety of other organisations will be critical in fighting corruption. Key players include political leaders, civil servants, business leaders, global policymakers and other regulated professionals, as well as individual citizens and taxpayers. These stakeholders must cooperate in an increasingly global policy framework, even while many of them deal with the issue domestically.\n\nA good example of collaboration is seen in our Action Plan, which was developed in close coordination with the International Bar Association (IBA), with inspiration from their [_Anti Corruption Strategy for the Legal Profession_](https:\u002F\u002Fwww.anticorruptionstrategy.org\u002F), launched in 2010. This collaboration reflects the significant depth and breadth of both professions’ involvement across business, the public sector and society. Simply put, our impact is stronger working together.\n\nTo strengthen and enable a more streamlined and inclusive international approach, IFAC is also committed to working with other leading organisations, such as the Basel Institute on Governance, Business at OECD and the World Economic Forum’s Gatekeeper Task Force, through collective action to better address and prevent corruption.\n\n### Looking forward\n\nAccording to Transparency International, perceived levels of public sector corruption have [remained unchanged](https:\u002F\u002Fwww.transparency.org\u002Fen\u002Fcpi\u002F2021) worldwide for the past decade.\n\nWith the right frameworks in place, the global accountancy professions are uniquely placed to change this landscape to help deliver the necessary progress to reach the UN SDGs and improve the lives of people throughout the world.","2022-09-06",[30,31],"for-the-sake-of-sustainability-clear-out-corruption-here039s-how-accountants-can-play-a-role-2276",[844],"Insights",2276,[30,31],[844],[849,30],"Main page",{"id":851,"storage":43,"filename_disk":852,"filename_download":853,"title":854,"type":855,"created_on":856,"modified_on":856,"charset":16,"filesize":857,"width":858,"height":859,"duration":16,"embed":16,"description":16,"location":16,"tags":16,"metadata":860,"focal_point_x":16,"focal_point_y":16,"tus_id":16,"tus_data":16,"uploaded_on":856},"5981c144-6f20-4834-9fa7-f72747631c7c","5981c144-6f20-4834-9fa7-f72747631c7c.webp","tmp.webp","For the sake of sustainability, clear out corruption – here's how accountants can play a role","image\u002Fwebp","2025-05-12T21:16:18.000Z",90986,1400,1082,{},[],[863,879],{"id":864,"news_id":865,"tags_id":878},4948,{"id":834,"status":15,"user_created":57,"date_created":835,"user_updated":58,"date_updated":836,"title":837,"type":838,"body":839,"image":851,"date":840,"topic":866,"slug":842,"activity":867,"nid":845,"topics":868,"activities":869,"programme":16,"area":16,"websites":870,"translation_of":16,"language":16,"countries":871,"tags":872,"authors":874,"images":875,"translations":876,"content":877},[30,31],[844],[30,31],[844],[849,30],[],[864,873],5726,[],[],[],[],{"id":531,"name":532},{"id":873,"news_id":880,"tags_id":892},{"id":834,"status":15,"user_created":57,"date_created":835,"user_updated":58,"date_updated":836,"title":837,"type":838,"body":839,"image":851,"date":840,"topic":881,"slug":842,"activity":882,"nid":845,"topics":883,"activities":884,"programme":16,"area":16,"websites":885,"translation_of":16,"language":16,"countries":886,"tags":887,"authors":888,"images":889,"translations":890,"content":891},[30,31],[844],[30,31],[844],[849,30],[],[864,873],[],[],[],[],{"id":4,"name":5},[],[],[],[],{"id":898,"status":15,"date_created":899,"date_updated":900,"title":901,"type":838,"body":902,"date":903,"topic":904,"slug":907,"activity":908,"nid":909,"topics":910,"activities":912,"programme":16,"area":16,"websites":913,"language":16,"image":914,"translation_of":16,"countries":921,"tags":922,"authors":954,"images":969,"translations":970,"content":971},9549,"2022-05-26T22:52:20.000Z","2026-05-29T22:21:41.000Z","COP26: Is corruption on the agenda?","As world leaders gather this week at COP26 to negotiate their climate change commitments, we ask – will they include a credible commitment to fight corruption?\n\nBecause if there is one thing that will scupper efforts to address the climate crisis, it is corruption. Yet corruption is strangely missing from the conversation. Here are some things that deserve to be talked about louder.\n\n### Stealing money from climate and clean energy projects\n\nAt a basic level, renewable energy and climate mitigation or adaptation projects are as vulnerable to embezzlement and fraud as any other major public investment.\n\nIndeed clean energy is a lucrative business for criminals. When a [Sicilian renewable energy entrepreneur](https:\u002F\u002Fwww.theguardian.com\u002Fworld\u002F2019\u002Foct\u002F01\u002Fsicilys-king-of-wind-guilty-of-bankrolling-top-mafia-fugitive) was jailed in 2018 for a corrupt scheme involving securing windfarm permits, EUR 1.3 billion in illicit funds were confiscated plus assets including 43 companies, 98 properties and fleets of cars and boats.\n\nDid you pay extra to offset your carbon footprint last year? Carbon offsetting programmes and nature-based climate mitigation solutions, like the [REDD+ forest conservation scheme](https:\u002F\u002Fwww.u4.no\u002Fpublications\u002Fredd-integrity-an-evidence-based-approach-to-anti-corruption-in-redd) and [similar internationally funded projects](https:\u002F\u002Fwww.cmi.no\u002Fpublications\u002Ffile\u002F4478-unready-for-redd.pdf), are a really important part of our global response to climate change. But they are also vulnerable to corruption. They can even fuel it, by channelling cash into contexts with weak governance and few controls.\n\nCorrupt elites have a lot of practice in [capturing foreign aid](http:\u002F\u002Fdocuments1.worldbank.org\u002Fcurated\u002Fen\u002F493201582052636710\u002Fpdf\u002FElite-Capture-of-Foreign-Aid-Evidence-from-Offshore-Bank-Accounts.pdf). So when there is a lack of transparency and accountability in the allocation and tracking of climate funding – not to mention allegations of [financial mismanagement](https:\u002F\u002Fwww.thegenevaobserver.com\u002Fpost\u002Fundp-s-global-environment-facility-linked-once-again-with-allegations-of-fraud-and-corruption) – corrupt officials find it even easier to game the system.\n\nAnd at an even bigger scale are the [corruption risks in emissions trading schemes](https:\u002F\u002Fwww.u4.no\u002Fpublications\u002Fcarbon-market-corruption-risks-and-mitigation-strategies), important to achieving net zero, but only effective when they are free from corruption.\n\n### Weakening laws, skewing incentives, undermining investment\n\nBeyond the usual theft of funds, corruption in climate finance is known to “negatively impact climate change interventions, undermining mitigation efforts to reduce emissions and decreasing the quality of adaptation infrastructure”, according to this [U4 Brief on Corruption and Climate Finance](https:\u002F\u002Fwww.u4.no\u002Fpublications\u002Fcorruption-and-climate-finance).\n\nBribery, kickbacks, conflicts of interest and other forms of corruption can among other things:\n\n*   Weaken environmental regulations, for example with the result that consumers are sold [illegally logged wood](https:\u002F\u002Feia-global.org\u002Freports\u002F20190325-toxic-trade), eat fish from a global catch that is alleged to be up to [50 percent illegal, unregulated and unreported](https:\u002F\u002Fwww.economist.com\u002Finternational\u002F2020\u002F10\u002F24\u002Fillegal-fishing-fleets-plunder-the-oceans), and drive electric vehicles packed with minerals from a mining sector plagued by [corruption](https:\u002F\u002Fwww.theguardian.com\u002Fnews\u002F2017\u002Fdec\u002F22\u002Fparadise-papers-us-sanctions-billionaire-dealings-drc) and other abuses.\n*   Negatively influence project choices by skewing decision-makers’ incentives towards building unnecessary [infrastructure](https:\u002F\u002Finfrastructuretransparency.org\u002F) or opting for large and [non-renewable energy projects](https:\u002F\u002Fwww.u4.no\u002Ftopics\u002Foil-gas-and-mining\u002Fbasics) that offer greater possibilities for nepotism and bribes.\n*   Enable industry lobbies to have undue influence on government policies, which may explain some countries’ reluctance to move away from fossil fuels and even to attempt to [water down the findings](https:\u002F\u002Fwww.bbc.com\u002Fnews\u002Fscience-environment-58982445) of scientific reports.  \n\nIf the above factors weren’t enough to stymie investment in sensible and well-governed climate mitigation and adaptation projects, there’s another: numerous studies [such as this one by the EBRD](https:\u002F\u002Fwww.ebrd.com\u002Fdocuments\u002Foce\u002Fdoes-corruption-matter-for-sources-of-foreign-direct-investment.pdf) show that “corruption imposes additional costs on investors and increases uncertainty surrounding future costs and revenues”. And we stand now at a point in history in which effective climate-related investment is an essential driver for slowing down and stopping climate change.\n\n### Destroying trust, hindering humanitarian action\n\nWhatever happens at COP26 and beyond, we can expect climate change to deliver us more frequent humanitarian disasters in the form of floods, droughts, heatwaves and the resulting mass migration.\n\nYet when disaster strikes, corruption and its co-conspirators – lack of transparency and accountability – [hinder humanitarian action](https:\u002F\u002Fbaselgovernance.org\u002Fblog\u002Fcorruption-natural-disaster-situations-can-our-experiences-help-prevent-corruption-related).\n\nAnd it’s not just about cash and emergencies, of course, but about the corrupt [informal networks](https:\u002F\u002Fbaselgovernance.org\u002Fpublic-governance\u002Fresearch-projects\u002Finformal-governance) and collusion that stifle progress towards the sustainable development goals (SDGs) and destroy social trust.\n\n### Can real commitments to fight corruption contribute to climate change goals?\n\nYes, they can and they must.\n\nFirst, for the money. If corruption deprives countries of funds desperately needed to address climate change and achieve the SDGs, then there is an obvious solution.\n\nThe World Economic Forum [estimated in 2019](https:\u002F\u002Fwww.weforum.org\u002Fagenda\u002F2019\u002F12\u002Fcorruption-global-problem-statistics-cost\u002F) that “Corruption, bribery, theft and tax evasion, and other illicit financial flows cost developing countries $1.26 trillion per year.”\n\nThat is more than 10 times the [USD 100 billion that rich countries promised](https:\u002F\u002Fwww.nature.com\u002Farticles\u002Fd41586-021-02846-3) to send annually to help developing countries address climate change under the 2015 Paris Agreement (that promise was broken, but that is a different story).\n\nIt is more than double even the UN’s [highest estimate](https:\u002F\u002Fnews.un.org\u002Fen\u002Fstory\u002F2021\u002F06\u002F1094762) of annual investment needed for climate adaptation in developing countries, which ranges from USD 140 to 500 billion per year.\n\nYou could do any number of sums with any number of estimates – the results give the same clear message. Stop corruption, Minister, and there’s your budget for the ambitious climate change strategy that your people and the planet need. With change to spare.\n\nSecond, fighting corruption is not only about the money. It’s about creating just, safe societies where citizens can trust politicians and institutions to act in their interest.\n\nIn our work at the Basel Institute, we see that this vision can be very real. We see how anti-corruption and asset recovery efforts can not only mobilise significant funding for sustainable development, but also, as we show in our [Working Paper on Recovering Assets in Support of the SDGs](https:\u002F\u002Fbaselgovernance.org\u002Fpublications\u002Fworking-paper-29-recovering-assets-support-sdgs-soft-hard-assets-development) “strengthen some of its key foundations of sustainable development, such as the rule of law and strong, transparent and accountable institutions”.\n\nPrecisely the level of governance that is needed to bring everyone on board in tackling climate change, domestically and internationally.\n\n### Corruption affects the whole of humanity and our future world\n\nCorruption is not a standalone topic to be dealt with at [corruption-focused conferences](https:\u002F\u002Fwww.unodc.org\u002Funodc\u002Fen\u002Fcorruption\u002FCOSP\u002Fconference-of-the-states-parties.html) or only by government anti-corruption agencies, corporate compliance departments and civil society organisations with an anti-corruption mission.\n\nCorruption affects the whole of humanity and profoundly hurts people, especially the most vulnerable, directly and indirectly through its negative impact on climate change. [Green corruption](https:\u002F\u002Fbaselgovernance.org\u002Fgreen-corruption) destroys our environment, our wildlife and biodiversity, and the natural resources we depend upon for our lives and livelihoods, at a time they most need protection.\n\nSo as the politicians debate their climate commitments at COP26 this week, perhaps those who really care about the planet and its people can bring corruption into the conversation.","2021-11-01",[365,187,905,906],"Prevention"," Research and Innovation","cop26-is-corruption-on-the-agenda-2125",[844],2125,[371,187,911],"Prevention Research and Innovation",[844],[849],{"id":915,"storage":43,"filename_disk":916,"filename_download":853,"title":901,"type":855,"created_on":917,"modified_on":917,"charset":16,"filesize":918,"width":858,"height":919,"duration":16,"embed":16,"description":16,"location":16,"tags":16,"metadata":920,"focal_point_x":16,"focal_point_y":16,"tus_id":16,"tus_data":16,"uploaded_on":917},"67e35acf-439a-4423-bed1-d20d802ce501","67e35acf-439a-4423-bed1-d20d802ce501.webp","2025-05-12T21:17:26.000Z",50872,880,{},[],[923,940],{"id":924,"news_id":925,"tags_id":939},5781,{"id":898,"status":15,"user_created":57,"date_created":899,"user_updated":58,"date_updated":900,"title":901,"type":838,"body":902,"image":915,"date":903,"topic":926,"slug":907,"activity":927,"nid":909,"topics":928,"activities":929,"programme":16,"area":16,"websites":930,"translation_of":16,"language":16,"countries":931,"tags":932,"authors":934,"images":936,"translations":937,"content":938},[365,187,905,906],[844],[371,187,911],[844],[849],[],[924,933],5782,[935],1180,[],[],[],{"id":250,"name":251},{"id":933,"news_id":941,"tags_id":953},{"id":898,"status":15,"user_created":57,"date_created":899,"user_updated":58,"date_updated":900,"title":901,"type":838,"body":902,"image":915,"date":903,"topic":942,"slug":907,"activity":943,"nid":909,"topics":944,"activities":945,"programme":16,"area":16,"websites":946,"translation_of":16,"language":16,"countries":947,"tags":948,"authors":949,"images":950,"translations":951,"content":952},[365,187,905,906],[844],[371,187,911],[844],[849],[],[924,933],[935],[],[],[],{"id":4,"name":5},[955],{"id":935,"news_id":956,"authors_id":968},{"id":898,"status":15,"user_created":57,"date_created":899,"user_updated":58,"date_updated":900,"title":901,"type":838,"body":902,"image":915,"date":903,"topic":957,"slug":907,"activity":958,"nid":909,"topics":959,"activities":960,"programme":16,"area":16,"websites":961,"translation_of":16,"language":16,"countries":962,"tags":963,"authors":964,"images":965,"translations":966,"content":967},[365,187,905,906],[844],[371,187,911],[844],[849],[],[924,933],[935],[],[],[],{"id":172,"name":173,"position":16,"image":174},[],[],[],{"id":973,"status":15,"date_created":974,"date_updated":975,"title":976,"type":838,"body":977,"date":978,"topic":979,"slug":980,"activity":981,"nid":984,"topics":985,"activities":986,"programme":16,"area":16,"websites":987,"language":16,"image":988,"translation_of":16,"countries":995,"tags":1017,"authors":1060,"images":1091,"translations":1092,"content":1093},9562,"2022-05-26T22:52:31.000Z","2025-08-31T23:14:40.000Z","The Green Corruption paradox: how Indonesians view corruption, the environment and economic development","Emerging economies have long struggled with the question of how to combine economic development with sustainable use of natural resources. How does corruption factor into this combination?\n\nOur recent survey of Indonesians’ attitudes to corruption, environmental degradation and the economy reveals what we call the Green Corruption paradox: Conflicting, and arguably mutually exclusive, views on all three topics can co-exist. Despite seeing the presence of and being deeply concerned about corruption and environmental degradation, people tend to focus on livelihoods when times are hard.\n\nPeople also, according to the survey data, favour economic structures that appear to channel the benefits of natural resource utilisation more directly to citizens. In Indonesia, this means rejecting private companies – particularly foreign-owned – in favour of state-owned enterprises (SOEs) and people’s cooperatives.\n\nGiven that the governance structures of both remain weak, as evidenced in part by numerous corruption cases involving SOEs, this “trust credit” creates tremendous expectations of SOEs’ future behaviour. This can only be ensured through the systematic mitigation of corruption risks in these vast, crucial and proliferating institutions.\n\nThis requires bold leadership that has historically been provided by the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK). Unfortunately, our survey shows a steady and significant decline of trust in the KPK, losing 20 points (from 90% to 70%) in the last five years, with the lion’s share of the loss occurring since late 2019.\n\n### Fears, beliefs and contradictions – what the survey revealed\n\nTogether with Lembaga Survei Indonesia (LSI), the leading Indonesian pollster, we ran a national public opinion survey conducted via telephone in July 2021 covering 2,580 respondents. In-depth face-to-face interviews also took place with 30 private-sector representatives working in various natural resource sectors.\n\nAccording to the survey data, Indonesians harbour great reservations about corruption levels generally. The share of the public that says corruption has increased over the last two years is at its second highest level (60%) in the five years that LSI has been measuring this question. The survey also revealed serious concerns about high levels of corruption in the natural resource sector specifically, and about worsening environmental degradation.\n\nYet despite this, two thirds of respondents say they believe that some profitable industries based on Indonesia’s rich natural resources, including plantations for palm oil and rubber, are not harmful to the environment.\n\nMoreover, even when environmental degradation is clearly the result of natural resource exploitation, a majority believes that this is acceptable because of the economic benefits that it brings. This attitude may be exacerbated by the depressed economic situation: a full two-thirds of the participants see the current state of the economy as bad or very bad.\n\nDespite this pessimistic assessment of both the economy and overall corruption levels, trust in government remains high. A full three quarters of participants believe the government can be trusted to be a steward of the environment. The same percentage say the government is doing its best to balance economic growth and environmental degradation.\n\nThis trust in government, including in agencies in charge of natural resource management, cohabitates uncomfortably with citizens’ assessment of the level of corruption in these sectors. When asked about a wide array of activities to utilise natural resources, respondents who had an opinion were between two and three times more likely to say that corruption is widespread or very widespread. Clearly, citizens are not naïve about the governance risks that natural resource exploitation brings with it.\n\nSo, the public generally is concerned about corruption and environmental degradation. People also have strong concerns about worsening corruption in the country overall and high levels of corruption in natural resource exploitation in particular. One would think that these concerns would make natural resource sectors highly unattractive. Yet this is not the case.\n\nBased on our analysis of the survey data, we believe the economic benefits of natural resource exploitation are what lead respondents to suspend their otherwise highly sceptical attitude when it comes to the harmfulness of some environmental practices.\n\nThis uncomfortable acceptance of natural resource exploitation is further emphasised when a majority of the respondents say that where environmental degradation occurs, it is outweighed by the economic benefits the exploitation brings.\n\n### Resource nationalism is alive and well\n\nConcerns about corruption and the environment, one might suppose, could lead to a welcoming of foreign investors with their environmental, social and governance (ESG)-friendly ratings and compliance systems.\n\nThis would be a mistake, however, as according to the survey the Indonesian public is highly critical of any involvement of foreign companies – or even any foreign investment – in the natural resource field. The share of respondents that support curbs on foreign investment in environmental exploitation is between four and seven times higher (depending on the sector) than those who do not desire such curbs. This is despite the significant economic hardship the country is experiencing.\n\nThis severe dislike of foreign companies is not because they are perceived as more corrupt or more polluting. Rather, the top three reasons are all variations of resource nationalism: foreign companies don’t have Indonesian interests at heart, Indonesia should not compromise its independence, and the expectation that state revenue will be greater without foreign companies.\n\n### Economic benefits of natural resource exploitation should flow to citizens\n\nWho, then, should be managing Indonesia’s natural resources? Clearly not Indonesian companies, as the public is overwhelmingly critical of them too. In no sector do more than 14% of respondents support private companies exploiting natural resources.\n\nThe answers, according to respondents, are people’s cooperatives and SOEs. Cooperatives are at least twice as popular as private companies (mining) and up to four times more popular (fishing). A majority of respondents also strongly endorsed SOEs and claimed they can be trusted to manage natural resources for the benefit of the people.\n\nBoth preferences appear to rest on the belief that natural resources are a public good that should be used to directly improve people’s economic conditions. Private companies that are profit-driven are not seen as sufficiently concerned about this.\n\n### Recommendations\n\nAlbeit extensive, this is a single survey at an unusual time in history and we should be wary of drawing strong conclusions. Nevertheless, we believe the results point to some clear takeaways that can inform Indonesian policy and the interventions of donors and civil society organisations concerned with conservation, anti-corruption and sustainable development.\n\n*   Rebuild trust in the KPK as Indonesia’s principal anti-corruption institution. Recent legal, administrative and political measures that have undermined trust in the KPK need to be urgently reversed to restore the agency’s moral authority and ability to lead the highly complex fight against environmental corruption.\n*   Only interventions that address economic, governance and environmental concerns together stand a chance to succeed. The close connection between economic, governance and environmental concerns means that any efforts at conservation must address all three of these points. This heightens the complexity of government reforms and donor programmes in any of these areas. Yet it is essential: working in isolation will only lead to efforts being undermined.\n*   Foreign investors need to grow thick skin. Resource nationalism is a significant obstacle to both foreign investment in the natural resource sector and foreign-supported and -implemented conservation programmes. Foreign actors in the natural resource field need to ensure their systems are sufficiently robust to withstand certain public and likely political criticism.\n*   Strengthen SOE governance. The strong preference of the public for SOEs in the management of natural resources places a tremendous responsibility on both the government and the SOEs themselves. Numerous corruption scandals and conflicts of interest are evidence that this public trust is on credit and must still be earned through tough political decisions, inspired reforms, methodical implementation and diligent monitoring.\n*   Support cooperatives in enhancing their governance. Strengthening the governance systems of cooperatives is likely more diffuse and painstaking than undertaking the same exercise in SOEs. However, it should not be neglected considering the environmental, economic and political importance of sectors in which cooperatives are strongly present, such as fishing.\n\n### Learn more\n\n*

Weaknesses in global supply chains make them vulnerable to exploitation by organised crime groups and bad actors working in legitimate businesses. Corruption opens the door to that exploitation. And the easy possibilities for laundering money from environmental crimes makes this illicit activity attractive to criminals around the world.\n\nAll the while, the health of the planet suffers and both private firms and financial institutions find themselves exposed to a host of physical, legal, financial and reputational risks.\n\nOur new four-part learning series [Wildlife crime – understanding risks, avenues for action](https:\u002F\u002Fbaselgovernance.org\u002Fpublications\u002Fwildlife-crime-series) aims to help private-sector decision-makers and compliance professionals, policymakers, anti-corruption and conservation practitioners, and law enforcement officers get a fast yet solid grasp of the main ways in which corruption and other financial crimes facilitate illegal trade in:\n\n*   [Wildlife generally](https:\u002F\u002Flearn.baselgovernance.org\u002Fcourse\u002Fview.php?id=77)\n*   [Exotic pets](https:\u002F\u002Flearn.baselgovernance.org\u002Fcourse\u002Fview.php?id=80)\n*   [Timber and other forest products](https:\u002F\u002Flearn.baselgovernance.org\u002Fcourse\u002Fview.php?id=83)\n*   [Marine species](https:\u002F\u002Flearn.baselgovernance.org\u002Fcourse\u002Fview.php?id=86)\n\nThe four topics are freely available as both PDF downloads and online resources on our Basel LEARN virtual learning platform, with no login needed.\n\nThere are interactive quizzes to test your knowledge after (or before!) looking through the resource, which aims to present relevant information, statistics and background knowledge in a user-friendly way.\n\nInfographics depict the supply chain vulnerabilities in each focus area and are freely shareable under a Creative Commons licence, like the publications themselves.\n\nWe hope the series will help to broaden understanding of the threats that wildlife crimes pose to sustainable development and clean business, and what concerned companies and others can do about them.\n\nIt was developed by the [Green Corruption programme](http:\u002F\u002Fbaselgovernance.org\u002Fgreen-corruption) at the Basel Institute on Governance with funding from PMI Impact.

Both industrial and artisanal mining are vulnerable, though in different ways.\n\nThe risks are set to grow as demand balloons for metals such as cobalt and copper that are needed for the green energy transition. The impact of corruption on a producing country’s development is deep and systemic. And it opens the gates to a flood of other risks, from environmental degradation to human rights abuses and conflict financing. How to deal with it?\n\nThat was the question at the heart of a virtual discussion on transparency and accountability in mineral supply chains hosted by the [OECD](http:\u002F\u002Fwww.oecd.org\u002F) and [Green Corruption](https:\u002F\u002Fbaselgovernance.org\u002Fgreen-corruption) team of the Basel Institute on Governance on 23 February 2021. Attended by 120+ participants, the event brought together expert perspectives from standard-setters, NGOs and industry.\n\n### How companies can protect themselves and their supply chains\n\nSince its adoption in 2011, the [OECD _Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals_](https:\u002F\u002Fwww.oecd.org\u002Fcorporate\u002Fmne\u002Fmining.htm) – now in its third edition – has been the gold standard in recommendations to identify and mitigate supply chain risks including corruption. Trade associations with serious responsible sourcing commitments have based their own standards on these guidelines. One example is the [responsible sourcing standard of the London Metal Exchange](https:\u002F\u002Fwww.lme.com\u002Fen-GB\u002FAbout\u002FResponsibility\u002FResponsible-sourcing), which consulted widely to adapt the OECD guidance to industry specificities, as well as to the growing legal requirements on anti-corruption and human rights due diligence.\n\nThe OECD’s forthcoming [FAQs](https:\u002F\u002Fbaselgovernance.org\u002Fnews\u002Fwelcoming-oecds-new-faqs-corruption-risks-mineral-supply-chains), which will be presented at the [Forum on Responsible Mineral Supply Chains](https:\u002F\u002Fmneguidelines.oecd.org\u002Fforum-responsible-mineral-supply-chains.htm) on April 26th, are designed to help companies use the OECD due diligence framework to address corruption risks. The publication covers 12 questions and answers on practical issues such as what to check for when conducting corruption risk assessments on high-risk suppliers and what to do if risks are identified at any point in the supply chain.\n\nPanellists converged around the idea that protecting against corruption risks needs proactive management. This may include:\n\n*   understanding vulnerabilities and identifying red flags with the help of NGOs, open-source information and OECD guidance (for example on [artisanal mining](https:\u002F\u002Fwww.oecd.org\u002Finvestment\u002FFAQ_Sourcing-Gold-from-ASM-Miners.pdf), [child labour](https:\u002F\u002Fmneguidelines.oecd.org\u002Fchild-labour-risks-in-the-minerals-supply-chain.htm) or [cobalt and copper sourcing in the DRC](https:\u002F\u002Fmneguidelines.oecd.org\u002Finterconnected-supply-chains-a-comprehensive-look-at-due-diligence-challenges-and-opportunities-sourcing-cobalt-and-copper-from-the-drc.htm));\n*   following the money, by conducting targeted financial audits and analysing payments to governments disclosed in [Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative](https:\u002F\u002Feiti.org\u002F) (EITI) reports;\n*   active reporting on corruption risks throughout the supply chain and not waiting for hard evidence or convictions before acting. The biggest corruption risk is before a conviction, not after, as the case of [Glencore and corruption risks in the Congo](https:\u002F\u002Fresourcematters.org\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002F2019\u002F04\u002FResourceMatters-SeeNoEvil-CobaltCorruptionRisks-Apr-2019.pdf) illustrates;\n*   engaging with other companies and stakeholders through [Collective Action](https:\u002F\u002Fbaselgovernance.org\u002Fcollective-action), in order to achieve stronger leverage and solve shared corruption and due diligence challenges;\n*   the inclusion of specific [anti-corruption clauses](https:\u002F\u002Ficcwbo.org\u002Fpublication\u002Ficc-anti-corruption-clause\u002F) in contracts that may give buyers the right to audit revenue flows that raise concerns;\n*   systems to improve traceability and transparency, which may include [blockchain technologies](http:\u002F\u002Fmneguidelines.oecd.org\u002Fis-there-a-role-for-blockchain-in-responsible-supply-chains.htm) – although companies should keep in mind that there is no simple technological fix.\n\n### How countries can cooperate to improve standards in mining\n\nCorruption in mining has much in common with corruption in forestry and other natural resource sectors. Studies in Indonesia and elsewhere show the same old tricks: bribery, embezzlement, money laundering, tax fraud, undisclosed royalty payments and non-compliance with regulations.\n\nThere is widespread evidence of rampant petty corruption on the ground, in part due to the use of intermediaries and high levels of discretion of local officials, and of obscene grand corruption schemes between political and business elites – the [Gertler](https:\u002F\u002Fwww.nytimes.com\u002F2021\u002F02\u002F21\u002Fus\u002Fpolitics\u002Fdan-gertler-sanctions.html) and [Steinmetz](https:\u002F\u002Fwww.swissinfo.ch\u002Feng\u002Fswiss-court-hands-diamond-magnate-five-year-prison-sentence-\u002F46309514) cases being only the most high-profile.\n\nSuccessful investigations and prosecutions are few and far between (why, is something the Basel Institute is [working to better understand](https:\u002F\u002Fbaselgovernance.org\u002Fnews\u002Fanti-corruption-approaches-protect-biodiversity-launch-new-green-corruption-collaboration-tnrc)). Prevention is key, and this needs increased cooperation in particular:\n\n*   between the public and private sectors, especially in proactive information-sharing between companies and financial institutions with law enforcement;\n*   between countries, through a carrot-and-stick combination of international pressure, investment from countries that value transparency and accountability, and support for strengthening legal frameworks and capacity;\n*   between law enforcement agencies, as money laundering schemes cross many borders and green corruption investigations often arise from information transmitted spontaneously by foreign law enforcement counterparts;\n*   with local civil society representatives that dare to speak up against corruption in their country, because ultimately change to a deeply corrupt political context needs to come from within.\n\nA basic step to improve international cooperation and harmonisation of standards – and avoid the “race to the bottom” in environmental, human rights and anti-corruption issues – is to implement the OECD Due Diligence Guidance into national and regional policies, as China did in 2015. There are concerns that the European Union’s proposed update to the [2006 Batteries Directive](https:\u002F\u002Fec.europa.eu\u002Fcommission\u002Fpresscorner\u002Fdetail\u002Fen\u002Fip_20_2312) does not yet specifically include corruption risks highlighted in the Guidance – something which, as this panel discussion showed, is absolutely crucial to the integrity of mineral supply chains in all senses.\n\n### With thanks to our panel\n\n*   Louis Maréchal, Sector Lead, Minerals & Extractives, Centre for Responsible Business Conduct, OECD (moderator)\n*   Laode Syarif, Executive Director, Kemitraan and Former Vice Chairman, Corruption Eradication Commission of the Republic of Indonesia\n*   Elisabeth Caesens, Director, Resource Matters\n*   Hugo Brodie, Vice President - Sustainability, London Metal Exchange\n*   Luca Maiotti, Policy Analyst, Minerals Team, Centre for Responsible Business Conduct, OECD\n\nLearn more about the OECD-Basel Institute [Corrupting the environment series](https:\u002F\u002Fbaselgovernance.org\u002Fgreen-corruption\u002Fcorrupting-environment) and register now for upcoming events on [following the money](https:\u002F\u002Fbaselgovernance.zoom.us\u002Fwebinar\u002Fregister\u002FWN_Pa5XVdTNQ-2v15BhFlOChg) (17 March) and applying [behavioural insights](https:\u002F\u002Fbaselgovernance.zoom.us\u002Fwebinar\u002Fregister\u002FWN_UNofuB6jRI-VLe43E_IH1A) to fight green corruption (14 April).","2021-03-03",[187],"protecting-mineral-supply-chains-from-green-corruption-risks-1978",[1160,1161,1162],"Events","Presentations","Partnerships",1978,[187],[1160,1161,1162],[849],{"id":1168,"storage":43,"filename_disk":1169,"filename_download":853,"title":1154,"type":855,"created_on":1170,"modified_on":1170,"charset":16,"filesize":1171,"width":858,"height":1172,"duration":16,"embed":16,"description":16,"location":16,"tags":16,"metadata":1173,"focal_point_x":16,"focal_point_y":16,"tus_id":16,"tus_data":16,"uploaded_on":1170},"b67b0e87-6629-4f91-9ed9-4435fd1ba467","b67b0e87-6629-4f91-9ed9-4435fd1ba467.webp","2025-05-12T21:18:40.000Z",34876,667,{},[],[1176,1194,1210,1224],{"id":1177,"news_id":1178,"tags_id":1193},5835,{"id":1152,"status":15,"user_created":57,"date_created":1153,"user_updated":999,"date_updated":975,"title":1154,"type":1099,"body":1155,"image":1168,"date":1156,"topic":1179,"slug":1158,"activity":1180,"nid":1163,"topics":1181,"activities":1182,"programme":16,"area":16,"websites":1183,"translation_of":16,"language":16,"countries":1184,"tags":1185,"authors":1189,"images":1190,"translations":1191,"content":1192},[187],[1160,1161,1162],[187],[1160,1161,1162],[849],[],[1177,1186,1187,1188],5836,5837,5838,[],[],[],[],{"id":250,"name":251},{"id":1186,"news_id":1195,"tags_id":1207},{"id":1152,"status":15,"user_created":57,"date_created":1153,"user_updated":999,"date_updated":975,"title":1154,"type":1099,"body":1155,"image":1168,"date":1156,"topic":1196,"slug":1158,"activity":1197,"nid":1163,"topics":1198,"activities":1199,"programme":16,"area":16,"websites":1200,"translation_of":16,"language":16,"countries":1201,"tags":1202,"authors":1203,"images":1204,"translations":1205,"content":1206},[187],[1160,1161,1162],[187],[1160,1161,1162],[849],[],[1177,1186,1187,1188],[],[],[],[],{"id":1208,"name":1209},1236,"Compliance",{"id":1187,"news_id":1211,"tags_id":1223},{"id":1152,"status":15,"user_created":57,"date_created":1153,"user_updated":999,"date_updated":975,"title":1154,"type":1099,"body":1155,"image":1168,"date":1156,"topic":1212,"slug":1158,"activity":1213,"nid":1163,"topics":1214,"activities":1215,"programme":16,"area":16,"websites":1216,"translation_of":16,"language":16,"countries":1217,"tags":1218,"authors":1219,"images":1220,"translations":1221,"content":1222},[187],[1160,1161,1162],[187],[1160,1161,1162],[849],[],[1177,1186,1187,1188],[],[],[],[],{"id":76,"name":77},{"id":1188,"news_id":1225,"tags_id":1237},{"id":1152,"status":15,"user_created":57,"date_created":1153,"user_updated":999,"date_updated":975,"title":1154,"type":1099,"body":1155,"image":1168,"date":1156,"topic":1226,"slug":1158,"activity":1227,"nid":1163,"topics":1228,"activities":1229,"programme":16,"area":16,"websites":1230,"translation_of":16,"language":16,"countries":1231,"tags":1232,"authors":1233,"images":1234,"translations":1235,"content":1236},[187],[1160,1161,1162],[187],[1160,1161,1162],[849],[],[1177,1186,1187,1188],[],[],[],[],{"id":4,"name":5},[],[],[],[],9,1780676632335]
