Open Public Consultation on SFC

The AACI Opens Public Consultation for Its Standard on Fighting Corruption (SFC).

(Tempe, Arizona, August 28, 2023)

Today, The American Anti-Corruption Institute (AACI) issued the following Standards on Fighting Corruption. Click on "available for public consultation" to send your feedback and comment.

1. Standard on Fighting Corruption 220: Deterrence (issued and not available for comment)

2. Standard on Fighting Corruption 240: Transparency (issued and not available for comment)

The Standards on Fighting Corruption (SFCs) guide those charged with governance, executive management, and other decision makers to implement the Ten Principles of Fighting Corruption promulgated by The AACI effectively and efficiently. They also:

  • Promote consistent practice and behavior and facilitate effective responses to identified corruption risks.
  • Help management and other stakeholders to assess and evaluate the entity's commitment to fighting fraud and corruption, and 
  • Support international efforts in lowering corruption risks to acceptable low levels. 

The effective fight against corruption supports the functioning dynamics of capital markets, sustainable economic performance, financial stability, and regulation. Despite the efforts of numerous governments to combat corruption, the widespread exasperation stemming from persistent corruption and money laundering underscores the importance of adhering to the ten principles of anti-corruption measures and their supporting SFCs.

The American Anti-Corruption Institute (AACI) invites all stakeholders to comment on the proposed SFC via its official blog. Comments are requested by October 12, 2023.

About The American Anti-Corruption Institute (AACI)

The American Anti-Corruption Institute (AACI) is the only Institute that targets executive management and those charged with governance of any organization to equip its decision makers with the required knowledge and skills, enabling them to play a proactive role in preventing fraud and corruption. It achieves this objective through three premier certification programs — the Certified Anti-Corruption Manager (CACM) management credential. Second, the Certified Anti-Corruption Fellow (CACF) and the Certified Anti-Corruption Entity (CACE).

The fight against corruption, according to the scientific definition in this context, encompasses all efforts in prevention, deterrence, detection, and investigation. But we at The AACI believe that prevention is always better than cure. Therefore, we design and implement our specific and related learning programs to enhance decision-makers knowledge and professional skills to upgrade their financial intelligence and improve the quality of decisions to prevent and detect corruption in its early stages. Based on the above, The AACI empowers decision makers to avoid dishonesty by equipping them with basic principles and skills in internal control, governance, fraud and corruption, money laundering, financial statements fraud, effective decisions, and corruption prevention policy.
