Businesses are well-placed to inform policy priorities and to develop novel solutions to corruption and integrity challenges. Engagement between the private and public sectors, however, tends to be limited to ad-hoc interactions, often in a sensitive enforcement context. GPS seeks to unlock the creativity and potential of the private sector by providing a collaborative forum for sustained dialogue and innovation between business and governments.
Galvanizing the Private Sector
The Galvanizing the Private Sector (GPS) programme was a public-private co-operation initiative aiming to mobilise the private sector as key contributors in the fight against corruption and as promoters of a rules-based international business climate. The programme concluded in September 2026.
About the programme
GPS vision and objectives
Providing a collaborative platform for business to share their views with government and inform international, national and sectoral anti-corruption and integrity priorities.
Empowering business to act as advocates for integrity in their supply chains and operating markets.
Identifying and/or developing innovative practices to promote integrity.
Disseminating successful business-led approaches within the private sector as well as with governments and civil society
Anti-Corruption Leaders Hub
The Anti-Corruption Leaders Hub (ACLH) gathers more than 70 Chief Compliance Officers (or equivalent) from multinational enterprises as well as high-level government representatives and civil society leaders. The ACLH provides a platform for senior compliance executives to engage in dialogue with peers and governments, identify emerging and systemic corruption issues, and develop potential solutions. The ACLH institutionalises engagement between the business community and public sector in a collaborative, non-enforcement related context.
The Anti-Corruption Leaders Hub meets annually in person at the OECD headquarters in Paris, France.
