As part of the World Bank Group (WBG), the Integrity Vice Presidency (INT) shares in the WBG’s overall mission in alleviating poverty and achieving a shared and sustainable prosperity in our client countries.

INT helps detect, prevent, and deter fraud and corruption in the use of the WBG’s financial resources, so that those resources are used effectively to benefit the poor people that they are intended to reach.

Reducing fraud and corruption in WBG projects helps to ensure that WBG funds are used for their intended purposes: to alleviate poverty and boost our clients’ shared prosperity and stability, on a livable planet.

Working with others in international development institutions, INT aims to measurably minimize development assistance funds lost to fraud, corruption, and abuse, and increase the quality and results of development efforts. To ensure its independence, INT’s Vice President (VP) reports directly to the President of the WBG.

To achieve this, INT works closely with other stakeholders across the WBG to:
1.  Help detect, prevent, and deter fraud and corruption in WBG-supported projects and activities by: 
• professionally investigating allegations of fraud, corruption, collusion, coercion, or obstruction (the five Bank-sanctionable practices) in WBG activities; 
• seeking Bank sanctions against firms and individuals that have engaged in any sanctionable practice; 
• using information available to INT to help operational staff design and implement projects in ways that minimize fraud and corruption risks;
• working with the WBG’s operational departments and other oversight and control units to help prevent fraud and corruption in operations by distilling lessons from investigative findings, developing effective risk identification and management tools, making recommendations to address risks and issues identified through investigations, and ensuring timely disclosure to the Board of risks identified through ongoing or recently completed investigations that are of relevance to new operations presented for Board approval;
• conducting detailed fiduciary reviews of Bank-supported projects with operations, using forensic methodology to detect indicators of fraud or corruption, so that they can be addressed early as possible for better project outcomes; and
• through INT’s Integrity Compliance Office, supporting and monitoring sanctioned entities’ efforts to put in place appropriate integrity compliance programs, in order to raise their integrity standards and reduce risks associated with their operations following their release from sanction.

2.  Help client countries to fight fraud and corruption by:
• referring investigative findings to investigative and enforcement authorities in impacted countries, and working with authorities, as requested and appropriate, to follow-up and act; 
• supporting client country counterparts with their preventive and integrity risk mitigation efforts at the project and policy levels; 
• helping build client country capacity in preventive and forensic techniques; and
• collaborating in multilateral efforts to mitigate the risks of fraud or corruption in development activities.

3.  Enforce the highest standards of professional integrity and ethical behavior among WBG staff and corporate vendors by:
• investigating allegations of staff misconduct involving fraud and corruption; 
• investigating corporate vendors alleged to have engaged in sanctionable practices; and 
• mining the lessons from those investigations to undertake training and outreach programs to strengthen the WBG’s internal controls environment.
