OECD member since 1960

This set of indicators covers countries’ strategic frameworks on anti-corruption. These could consist of a single strategy or be spread across multiple strategies, but all strategies must be adopted at the highest level of government (council of ministers/cabinet, president or parliament/congress). Data for OECD members was published in 2021 and 2024 with information relating to 2020 and 2023, respectively. Data for non-OECD countries was published in 2024, with information relating to 2023.
