A Resource Guide on State Measures for Strengthening Corporate Integrity

This resource guide explores measures that States can take to encourage corporate integrity. The resource guide is divided into three parts. An initial section describes the Convention articles that frame State
interaction with the private sector. These include provisions mandating criminalization of bribery
and other corruption offences, as well as specific measures for engaging the private sector. The
second section takes a closer look at the private sector, with particular attention to governance
reforms and other factors that can drive corporate integrity. This section also outlines the “business
case” for combating corruption and core elements of an effective anti-corruption programme.
The final section of the resource guide describes the range of sanctions and incentives that have been
developed to advance UNCAC objectives for preventing and addressing corruption within the
private sector.
