Through the TI-Secretariat, TI has also been active in promoting greater access to information in matters of a regional or global nature, such as transparency in the area of public contracting or in the way in which politics are financed.

Transparency International promotes high standards of transparency in both these areas, outlining - among other things - what should be disclosed in order to avoid corruption risks.
