# Enforcement of the OECD Convention on Combating Foreign Bribery: Progress Report 2007 URL: https://www.transparency.org/en/publications/enforcement-of-the-oecd-convention-2007 Type: Publication or report Published: 2007-07-18 Updated: 2020-10-13 --- 18 July 2007 This is the third progress report on the enforcement of the OECD Convention on Combating Bribery of Foreign Public Officials prepared by Transparency International (TI), the global coalition against corruption. It examines the enforcement performance of 34 of the 37 countries that have ratified the OECD Anti-Bribery Convention. The first report was issued in March 2005, covering 24 countries; the second in June 2006, covering 31 countries. TI's progress reports are intendedto provide an annual assessment of government enforcement. Enforcement of the OECD Convention is crucially important to the fight against international corruption. Most major multinational companies have their headquarters in signatory states and effective enforcement would significantly reduce the supply side of international corruption. ### Related publications ## [Regional Assessment of Integrity in Political Finance in South Asia, Southeast Asia and East Asia](https://www.transparency.org/en/publications/integrity-political-finance-asia) Publication • 03 September 2026 This report reviews systems across 17 countries to identify the areas of political finance most in need of reform. ## [Connecting the Dots: How financial intelligence units expose corrupt money flows and how they could do more](https://www.transparency.org/en/publications/connecting-the-dots) Publication • 24 June 2026 Financial intelligence units can play a key role in uncovering corruption, but only if they have the powers, resources and access to information they need. ## [Whistleblowing Authorities in Europe: Roles, challenges and lessons learned](https://www.transparency.org/en/publications/whistleblowing-authorities-in-europe-roles-challenges-and-lessons-learned) Publication • 19 June 2026 This report examines the institutional design, mandates and functioning of national whistleblowing authorities across Europe. ## [Strengthening Public Oversight: Good practices for partnerships between civil society and supreme audit institutions](https://www.transparency.org/en/publications/strengthening-public-oversight-good-practices-for-partnerships-between-civil-society-and-supreme-audit-institutions) Publication • 29 May 2026 Stronger collaboration between Supreme Audit Institutions and Civil Society Organisations is needed for better public financial oversight. ## Priorities - [Foreign bribery enforcement](https://www.transparency.org/en/our-priorities/foreign-bribery-enforcement) ## Projects - [Strengthening enforcement of the OECD Anti-Bribery Convention](https://www.transparency.org/en/projects/strengthening-enforcement-of-the-oecd-anti-bribery-convention-1) ![](https://images.transparencycdn.org/images/2007_OECDProgressReport_EN_116.jpg?auto=compress&fit=crop&fm=webp&w=1200) [Download](https://images.transparencycdn.org/images/2007_OECDProgressReport_EN.pdf)
