Annual Report 2023

In 2023, Transparency International worked as a united, global force for change. We have one vision: a world in which government, business, civil society and the daily lives of people are free of corruption. With over 100 independent chapters and partners around the world and an international secretariat in Berlin, we are leading the fight against corruption to turn this vision into reality.

Last year we:

• guided global resolutions to effectively address key corruption issues
• prepared communities for the largest election year in history
• strengthened anti-money laundering proposals in Europe
• helped people on every continent to safely report corruption and create change
• used the world’s best-known anti-corruption tool – the Corruption Perceptions Index - to expose the connections between corruption and conflict
• pushed justice systems to start proceedings against perpetrators and enablers of corruption
• made it riskier for officials to accept bribes from foreign companies

This report showcases the work of the Transparency International Secretariat, which coordinates the broader movement worldwide, spearheads global and joint advocacy, gathers best practices, conducts world-class research, and provides financial and technical support to our chapters.
