- The Systemic Framework underscores the importance of prevention, transparency, and accountability in managing integrity risks.
- The IDB Group aligns its efforts with international standards and collaborates with other Multilateral Development Banks (MDBs) and national authorities to enhance integrity measures.
2. 360-Degree Integrity Approach
- The OII and SNC have adopted a coordinated strategy that includes both proactive risk prevention and reactive enforcement.
- This approach ensures that all types of IDB operations—Sovereign Guaranteed (SG), Non-Sovereign Guaranteed (NSG), corporate projects, and services—are protected throughout the entire transaction cycle.
- Prevention is prioritized, with a focus on identifying and mitigating integrity risks before they escalate.
3. Prevention Results

- The first-ever integrity risk assessment of IDB Lab operations was carried out, resulting in updated guidelines.
- OII delivered 34 training and capacity-building sessions, a 40% increase over 2020, to strengthen the ability of executing agencies and project teams to manage integrity risks.
