The allocation of Next Generation EU funds and subsequent national recovery and resilience plans paves the way for
criminal organisations to threaten the fair implementation of the funds via fraudulent operations. In this context, the issue of corruption is as urgent as ever, also considering the recent launch of the “Operation Sentinel”
coordinated by the Europol.
The allocation of Next Generation EU funds and subsequent national recovery and resilience plans paves the way for
criminal organisations to threaten the fair implementation of the funds via fraudulent operations. In this context, the issue of corruption is as urgent as ever, also considering the recent launch of the “Operation Sentinel” coordinated by the Europol. Bearing in mind these recent developments on the issue, the present policy brief presents an overview of the current status and standards of corruption in several European Union countries, based on the findings of the comparative study “Corruptissima Re Publica, Plurimae Leges”, published by the European Liberal Forum in cooperation with the Fondazione Luigi Einaudi.
