The OECD Convention is the first major international treaty specifically to address 'supply-side bribery' by sanctioning the briber. The OECD Convention establishes an international standard for compliance with anti-corruption rules by 36 countries, including the 30 OECD members and six non-member countries, with the leading OECD exporting countries receiving particular attention. This book is an article-by-article commentary which gives particular attention to the results of the OECD monitoring process as applied to state implementation. Companies in particular are at ever greater risk of legal and 'reputational' damage resulting from failure to comply with the anti-corruption standards set inter alia, by the OECD Convention. This book provides them with comprehensive guidance on the OECD standards. The commentary also constitutes a significant work of comparative criminal law. It is written and edited by persons who include experts involved in development of the Convention standards as well as academics and legal practitioners.

The United Nations Convention against Corruption includes 71 articles, and takes a notably comprehensive approach to the problem of corruption, as it addresses prevention, criminalization, international cooperation, and asset recovery. Since it came into force more than a decade ago, the Convention has attracted nearly universal participation by states. As a global and comprehensive convention, which establishes new rules in several areas of anti-corruption law and helps shape domestic laws and policies around the world, this treaty calls for scholarly study. This volume helps to fill a gap in existing academic literature by providing an invaluable reference work on the Convention. It provides systematic coverage of the treaty, with each chapter discussing the relevant travaux préparatoires, the text of the final article, comparisons with other anti-corruption treaties, and available information about domestic implementing legislation and enforcement. This commentary is designed to serve as a reference work for academics, lawyers, and policy-makers working in the anti-corruption field, and in the fields of transnational criminal law and domestic criminal law. Contributors include anti-corruption experts, scholars, and legal practitioners from around the globe.

"The book deals with the review and analysis of current corruption risks and related risks. The advantage of this book is its versatility which is achieved by means of consideration of the best global and regional practices in the development and implementation of anti-corruption laws, and at the same time, the applied orientation and clear definition of the subject of research - anticorruption efforts in Russia. The book consists of three sections. Section 1 contains a general description of international anti-corruption legislation and related risks. Here, the authors discuss universal international and regional anti-corruption standards, and identify corruption risks in Russian laws. Section 2 presents the review of contemporary practice of introducing international anti-corruption standards into Russian laws. This section formulates the concept and identifies the structure and features of the implementation of international standards in Russian anti-corruption laws. International anti-corruption standards in the civil service law of Russia, in the administrative law of Russia, in the civil and criminal law of Russia are discussed. Section 3 deals with the process of implementing international anti-corruption standards in Russia's jurisprudence. The legal views of the Russian courts on anti-corruption issues are defined. The administrative practice of applying Russian anti-corruption rules in Russia through the prism of fundamental changes and the relationship to international standards is analyzed. The anti-corruption case law in Russia is analyzed. The book's target audience is scholars (legal scholars) who inquire into matters of development and application of anti-corruption standards, as well as statesmen and public officials: legislators that develop and approve anti-corruption standards, as well as law enforcement agencies (especially judges) that enforce these standards. In this book, representatives of the target audience will be able to find answers to their questions about how international anti-corruption standards are refracted (transformed) through the prism of domestic legislation, as shown through the example of present-day Russia. The Russian experience can be of some interest and prove useful in the development and improvement of the anti-corruption regulatory framework in some other countries, in particular, in developing countries of the world. Hence, this book can be used as a "road map" for the development of anti-corruption legislation in a modern state"--

The OECD Anti-Bribery Convention focuses on enforcement through the criminalisation of foreign bribery but it is multidisciplinary and includes key requirements to combat money laundering, accounting fraud, and tax evasion connected to foreign bribery. The first step, however, in enforcing foreign bribery and related offences is effective detection. This study looks at the primary sources of detection for the foreign bribery offence and the role that certain public agencies and private sector actors can play in uncovering this crime. It examines the practices developed in different sectors and countries which have led to the successful detection of foreign bribery with a view to sharing good practices and improving countries’ capacity to detect and ultimately step-up efforts against transnational bribery. The study covers a wide range of potential sources for detecting foreign bribery: self-reporting; whistleblowers and whistleblower protection; confidential informants and cooperating witnesses; media and investigative journalism; tax authorities; financial intelligence units; other government agencies; criminal and other legal proceedings; international co-operation and professional advisers.

The last twenty years have witnessed an astonishing transformation: the fight against corruption has grown from a handful of local undertakings into a truly global effort. Law occupies a central role in that effort and this timely book assesses the challenges faced in using law as it too morphs from a handful of local rules into a global regime. The book presents the perspectives of a global array of scholars, of policy makers, and of practitioners. Topics range from critical theoretical understandings of the global regime as a whole, to regional and local experiences in implementing and influencing the regime, including specific legal techniques such as deferred prosecution agreements, addressing corruption issues in dispute resolution, whistleblower protection, civil and administrative prosecutions, as well as blocking statutes. The book also includes discussions of the future shape of the global regime, the emergence of transnational compliance standards, and discussions by leaders of international organizations that take a leading role in the transnationalization of anti-corruption law. The Transnationalization of Anti-Corruption Law deals with the most salient aspects of the global anti-corruption regime. It is written by people who contribute to the structure of the regime, who practice within the regime, and who study the regime. It is written for anyone interested in corruption or corruption control in general, anyone with a general interest in jurisprudence or in international law, and especially anyone who is interested in critical thinking and analysis of how law can control corruption in a global context.

In Corruption and Targeted Sanctions, Anton Moiseienko analyses the blacklisting of foreigners suspected of corruption and the prohibition of their entry into the sanctioning state from an international law perspective. The implications of such actions have gained prominence with the increased adoption of the so-called Magnitsky legislation internationally.
