Abstract

Major Australian overseas aid not-for-profit organizations (NFPOs) were found lacking in their disclosures of anti-corruption measures. The authors conclude that this is due to a break down in regulatory oversight as a result of a lack of mandatory reporting standards. The key lesson from this paper is that there is a need for significant improvement in anti-corruption regulations, and the associated disclosure practices within the NFPO sector.
