Whilst new Greek PM Tsipras has said that fighting corruption will be a priority for his government, the OECD said that “Greece has made efforts to tackle domestic corruption in the country but it needs to give much higher priority to fighting foreign bribery.” The report makes a number of recommendations, including raising awareness of the problem, protecting whistleblowers from retaliation and investigating allegations seriously and quickly.

OECD Report: Greece needs to tackle foreign bribery as well as domestic corruption
The OECD Working Group on Bribery on Friday released a report reviewing Greece΄s efforts to fight foreign bribery.
Whilst the Greek political system is itself no stranger to domestic corruption scandals, a less well publicised problem is that of foreign bribery, which the OECD describes as offering or giving undue financial advantage, directly or through intermediaries, to a foreign public official to win or keep business or for improper advantage in any other business.
Following a cooperation agreement on 12 March, the OECD is giving technical assistance to Greece in designing and implementing a programme of structural reforms, including measures to promote a culture of transparency and integrity.
