At the Basel Institute we connect our IT, eLearning and training activities closely. The result is more effective and efficient capacity building that takes advantage of technological advances while keeping trainees’ learning experience at the centre.
How can corruption affect peace and security? Where does corruption influence or intersect with geopolitics? And how can peace-building and anti-corruption serve a common goal?
A two-hour workshop at Basel Peace Forum 2024, organised by Swisspeace, delved into these questions and more. Moderated by Gretta Fenner, Managing Director at the Basel Institute on Governance, the panel looked at some of the most critical intersections of corruption, security, peace and geopolitics.
We are very happy to announce the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding between the Eastern and Southern Africa Anti-Money Laundering Group (ESAAMLG) and the Basel Institute on Governance.

Our recently released Basel AML Index 2023 says that countries need to supercharge their efforts to understand the evolving financial crime risks of new technologies – especially cryptocurrencies and other virtual assets.
Mozambique faces critical infrastructure challenges – and opportunities – across all areas of its economy.
Yet the type of high-value procurement and infrastructure projects needed to boost development in the country are well known to be vulnerable to corruption. Risk factors include the high complexity, large transactions and multi-party negotiations that require close cooperation between the public and private sectors.
Global money laundering and terrorist financing (ML/TF) risks just keep on rising, according to the 2023 Public Edition of the Basel AML Index.
And that has real impact on people’s lives today – from well-funded terrorist attacks to trillions of dollars flowing out of countries through corruption and organised crime.
Today's biggest money laundering risks – and why they matter
Join the launch of the 2023 Public Edition of the Basel AML Index to explore some of the biggest and trickiest topics facing anti-money laundering and counter financing of terrorism (AML/CFT) professionals.
On the agenda:
A hybrid international conference attended by 1,300 participants has concluded that tackling the criminal use of cryptocurrencies is a race against time. Law enforcement agencies that collaborate in joint task teams and proactively collaborate with the private sector are getting ahead of the criminals. In contrast, countries that do not take the risks seriously are in danger of becoming a haven for crypto-enabled scams, money laundering and terrorist financing.
A Basel Institute delegation is at the 10th Conference of the States Parties (CoSP) to the UN Convention Against Corruption (UNCAC) this year. CoSP10 takes place in Atlanta, Georgia, USA from 11–15 December 2023.
