On Wednesday, May 23, the Caribbean Development Bank (CDB) and the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) together hosted an integrity workshop in Georgetown, Guyana. This joint workshop is the first in a series of events aimed at promoting integrity in CDB and IDB development financing interventions in each institution\u2019s respective Borrowing Member Countries.<\/p>\n

The objective of the CDB-IDB event was to raise awareness among workshop participants of the multilateral development banks\u2019 (MDBs) integrity frameworks and improve their capacity to manage risk in development-financed activities, including project procurement. Officials from various Government of Guyana agencies and ministries attended the workshop.<\/p>\n

Both MDBs take a collaborative approach to dealing with integrity issues that may arise in projects they finance, and the workshop was intended to raise awareness about the role of CDB\u2019s Office of Integrity, Compliance and Accountability (ICA) and the IDB\u2019s Office of Institutional Integrity (OII). ICA is mandated to prevent and investigate fraud and corruption in the Bank\u2019s activities and projects. CDB works to prevent, investigate and sanction violations of its policies and procedures, particularly those that are procurement-related.<\/p>\n

The IDB\u2019s Office of Institutional Integrity is an independent office of the IDB Group, which was created to investigate and prevent Prohibited Practices in IDB Group-financed activities. OII works closely with the IDB\u2019s Country Office in Guyana to manage integrity risks in IDB-financed operations. OII is part of the IDB Group\u2019s Sanctions System in order to address allegations of corruption and other prohibited practices in IDB Group-financed activities. The IDB Group requires that all participants in the activities it finances adhere to the highest standards of ethics and report to the IDB all suspected acts of Prohibited Practices they know of or become aware of during the procurement processes or contract implementation. As part of its outreach efforts in Guyana, OII staff met with leaders of the Guyanese business community on May 23rd.<\/p>\n
