Turkey - Phase 2bis: Report on Implementation of the OECD Anti-Bribery Convention
On 18 June 2009, the OECD Working Group on Bribery approved the Phase 2bis monitoring report for Turkey. The Working Group re-states its Phase 2 Recommendation for Turkey to “urgently” re-establish the liability of legal persons, and will undertake a peer review analysis of the new law in conjunction with Turkey’s Phase 2 written follow-up report in December 2009.
The Working Group calls on Turkey to expand corporate liability for foreign bribery, and to amend its foreign bribery legislation to remove inconsistencies.
