As Saudi Arabia emerges as a global investment destination, it is essential for foreign investors, financial institutions, and legal and compliance professionals to understand the Kingdom’s anti-corruption initiatives, including crucial legal frameworks and reporting mechanisms. Our latest whitepaper, ‘Integrity and Accountability: Saudi Arabia’s Anti-Corruption Drive’ explores the introduction of the recent Nazaha Law, and discusses Saudi Arabia’s ongoing efforts to combat corruption and foster a more transparent and fair business environment.
In this report, global investigations experts Ralph Stobwasser, Dominique Dondelinger, Tarek Bleik, and Mikhail Reshotkin detail the connection between Saudi Arabia’s anti-corruption efforts and Vision 2030—the Kingdom’s programme to reform its economic landscape and drive long-term prosperity. We analyse:
- The role and activities of Nazaha, the country’s Oversight and Anti-Corruption Authority.
- Updates on legislation aiming to enhance transparency, accountability, and public participation in combating corruption.
- Current progress, future goals, and remaining challenges for Saudi Arabia’s anti-corruption efforts and Vision 2030 reforms.
- Nazaha caseload statistics, reporting channel data, and examples of high-profile cases.
