FSVC works with government institutions, the private sector and civil society to prevent, detect and disrupt corruption. FSVC assists counterparts in enhancing governance by strengthening transparency and accountability mechanisms.

 

On the government side, FSVC provides technical assistance to Financial Intelligence Units, Anticorruption Commissions and Judicial Authorities to detect, report, investigate and prosecute corruption and financial crimes. In addition, FSVC assists Ministries of Finance, key line ministries and local governments in disclosing budget related information in a timely manner. FSVC also builds the oversight capacity of Parliaments, Supreme Audit Institutions and Ombudsmen.

 

On the private side, FSVC builds the capacity of civil society organizations (CSOs) and journalists to monitor, investigate and report on corruption to raise citizens’ awareness on the matter. FSVC also assists commercial banks and reporting entities (e.g., insurance companies, real estate companies, nonprofit organizations, etc.) to strengthen their compliance processes to better detect and report suspicious financial activity.
