Sanctioning foreign bribery through multijurisdictional resolutions
OECD
2026.09.02
The enforcement of transnational bribery laws is inherently complex, requiring co-ordinated action across multiple jurisdictions. The co-ordinated resolution of multijurisdictional foreign bribery cases through non-trial resolutions is an effective way to address these challenges, and the growing use of such resolutions is reshaping global anti-corruption enforcement. Co-ordinated resolutions help overcome jurisdictional barriers and improve the efficiency and predictability of enforcement outcomes. In doing so, they broaden the reach of enforcement across jurisdictions, facilitate a fairer distribution of recovered assets, and strengthen accountability for both bribe payers and corrupt officials. More broadly, they support efforts to address both the supply and demand sides of corruption, while helping affected countries to recover damages. Informed by insights from law enforcement practitioners, this paper provides quantitative and qualitative analysis of how multijurisdictional resolutions are transforming the fight against corruption. It outlines legal and institutional challenges, and offers guidance to help countries establish the frameworks and capacities needed to engage effectively in co-ordinated international enforcement efforts.
