We are thrilled to launch Basel STUDY, deepening our mission to empower professionals and practitioners working to counter corruption and financial crime. In conjunction with the University of Basel, the Basel Institute now offers advanced postgraduate qualifications in anti-corruption and asset recovery.

Professionals in anti-corruption, asset recovery, business integrity, governance and related topics need a range of advanced competencies – to master the intricacies of financial investigations, for example, or hone analytical and research capabilities.

At the Basel Institute, we know that much valuable expertise is gained “on the job” through training, mentoring and hands-on experience. Our existing learning opportunities meet these needs and empower communities of international professionals.
