The Global Corruption Report (GCR) is an annual evaluation of the state of corruption around the world. The report draws together analyses from experts and activists and presents recent developments pertaining to corruption as well as to the fight against it.

Each year the GCR has a special focus:

The forthcoming 2010 edition will be on Climate Change. In the past year we have witnessed unprecedented efforts around the world to tackle the threat of climate change. However, little attention has thus far been paid to the potential of corruption to jeopardise these efforts. This report will be the first of its kind, in exploring the corruption risks related to combatting climate change.

The 2009 GCR was on Corruption and the Private Sector. Corruption has enormous costs for private companies and businesses. Not only does it thwart market performance and undermine the security of investments, it also erodes the public trust and support that is essential for businesses to thrive.

The 2009 GCR brings together leading scholars and business practitioners to examine the existing and emerging corruption risks for businesses and proposes practical and innovative remedies for businesses to safeguard themselves against the potential threats of corruption.

National Integrity System country studies provide a detailed and nuanced assessment of anti-corruption systems at country level. The studies are based on TI's National Integrity System concept, which encompasses the interrelated elements necessary to promote accountability and integrity in a society. Since their introduction in 2000, the NIS country studies have provided a rich resource that profiles strengths and weaknesses in an anti-corruption system. Country studies complement TI's global measurement tools (CPI, BPI and Global Corruption Barometer), providing more in-depth assessment at country level. These qualitative studies create the basis for diagnostic and policy reform and enable the formulation of targeted and effective national anti-corruption strategies.

To date, NIS Country Studies have been completed in 30 countries in the Asia Pacific.

The most recent round of NIS Country Studies was completed in East and Southeast Asia in 2006 including Cambodia, China, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam. The Regional Overview Report of NIS in East and Southeast Asia 2006 summarises the findings of these nine studies.

Regional Overviews of NIS Country Studies have been produced also for the Pacific and South Asia. The National Integrity Systems: Pacific Islands - Overview Report 2004 and the Regional Overview Report on National Integrity Systems in South Asia 2005 provide an excellent overview of sub-regional corruption concerns and needs for reform.
