The International Anti-Corruption Court (IACC) will fill the crucial enforcement gap in the international framework for combatting grand corruption.
The IACC will strengthen the enforcement of relevant laws to punish and deter crimes of grand corruption committed by public officials, bribe payers, money launderers, and their co-conspirators, while also addressing the equitable use of recovered illicit assets. The 190 parties to the UN Convention against Corruption are required to criminalize corrupt acts, and yet national leaderships can create impunity for grand corruption – the high level abuse of public power for personal gain – in the countries that they rule.
More than 300 world leaders — including former Heads of State and Government, Nobel laureates, high court judges, cabinet ministers, and representatives of civil society, business, and faith communities — from over 80 countries have called for the creation of the IACC.
