 ANNEX A 

ANTI-CORRUPTION GUIDELINES FOR 

IFC TRANSACTIONS 
 The purpose of these
Guidelines is to clarify the meaning of the terms “Corrupt Practice”, “Fraudulent Practice”, “Coercive Practice”, “Collusive Practice” and “Obstructive Practice” in the context of IFC operations.

 1.     CORRUPT PRACTICES 

A “Corrupt Practice” is the offering, giving, receiving or soliciting, directly or indirectly, of anything of value to influence improperly the
actions of another party. 
 INTERPRETATION 
  

	 	A.	 Corrupt practices are understood as kickbacks and bribery. The conduct in question must involve the use of
improper means (such as bribery) to violate or derogate a duty owed by the recipient in order for the payor to obtain an undue advantage or to avoid an obligation. Antitrust, securities and other violations of law that are not of this nature are
excluded from the definition of corrupt practices. 


  

	 	B.	 It is acknowledged that foreign investment agreements, concessions and other types of contracts commonly
require investors to make contributions for bona fide social development purposes or to provide funding for infrastructure unrelated to the project. Similarly, investors are often required or expected to make contributions to bona fide local
charities. These practices are not viewed as Corrupt Practices for purposes of these definitions, so long as they are permitted under local law and fully disclosed in the payor’s books and records. Similarly, an investor will not be held liable
for corrupt or fraudulent practices committed by entities that administer bona fide social development funds or charitable contributions. 


  

	 	C.	 In the context of conduct between private parties, the offering, giving, receiving or soliciting of corporate
hospitality and gifts that are customary by internationally-accepted industry standards shall not constitute corrupt practices unless the action violates Applicable Law. 



 

	 	D.	 Payment by private sector persons of the reasonable travel and entertainment expenses of public officials that
are consistent with existing practice under relevant law and international conventions will not be viewed as Corrupt Practices. 


  

	 	E.	 The World Bank Group does not condone facilitation payments. For the purposes of implementation, the
interpretation of “Corrupt Practices” relating to facilitation payments will take into account relevant law and international conventions pertaining to corruption. 



  
 - 17 - 













 2.     FRAUDULENT PRACTICES 

A “Fraudulent Practice” is any action or omission, including a misrepresentation that knowingly or recklessly misleads, or attempts to mislead, a
party to obtain a financial or other benefit or to avoid an obligation. 
 INTERPRETATION 

 

	 	A.	 An action, omission, or misrepresentation will be regarded as made recklessly if it is made with reckless
indifference as to whether it is true or false. Mere inaccuracy in such information, committed through simple negligence, is not enough to constitute a “Fraudulent Practice” for purposes of this Agreement. 



 

	 	B.	 Fraudulent Practices are intended to cover actions or omissions that are directed to or against a World Bank
Group entity. It also covers Fraudulent Practices directed to or against a World Bank Group member country in connection with the award or implementation of a government contract or concession in a project financed by the World Bank Group. Frauds on
other third parties are not condoned but are not specifically sanctioned in IFC, MIGA, or PRG operations. Similarly, other illegal behavior is not condoned, but will not be considered as a Fraudulent Practice for purposes of this Agreement.



 3.     COERCIVE PRACTICES 

A “Coercive Practice” is impairing or harming, or threatening to impair or harm, directly or indirectly, any party or the property of the party to
influence improperly the actions of a party. 
 INTERPRETATION 

 

	 	A.	 Coercive Practices are actions undertaken for the purpose of bid rigging or in connection with public
procurement or government contracting or in furtherance of a Corrupt Practice or a Fraudulent Practice. 


  

	 	B.	 Coercive Practices are threatened or actual illegal actions such as personal injury or abduction, damage to
property, or injury to legally recognizable interests, in order to obtain an undue advantage or to avoid an obligation. It is not intended to cover hard bargaining, the exercise of legal or contractual remedies or litigation. 



4.     COLLUSIVE PRACTICES 

A “Collusive Practice” is an arrangement between two or more parties designed to achieve an improper purpose, including to influence improperly the
actions of another party. 
 INTERPRETATION 

Collusive Practices are actions undertaken for the purpose of bid rigging or in connection with public procurement or government contracting or
in furtherance of a Corrupt Practice or a Fraudulent Practice. 

  
 - 18 - 













 5.     OBSTRUCTIVE PRACTICES 

An “Obstructive Practice” is (i) deliberately destroying, falsifying, altering or concealing of evidence material to the
investigation or making of false statements to investigators, in order to materially impede a World Bank Group investigation into allegations of a corrupt, fraudulent, coercive or collusive practice, and/or threatening, harassing or intimidating any
party to prevent it from disclosing its knowledge of matters relevant to the investigation or from pursuing the investigation, or (ii) an act intended to materially impede the exercise of IFC’s access to contractually required information
in connection with a World Bank Group investigation into allegations of a corrupt, fraudulent, coercive or collusive practice. 

INTERPRETATION 

Any action legally or otherwise properly taken by a party to maintain or preserve its regulatory, legal or constitutional rights such as the
attorney-client privilege, regardless of whether such action had the effect of impeding an investigation, does not constitute an Obstructive Practice. 

GENERAL INTERPRETATION 

A person should not be liable for actions taken by unrelated third parties unless the first party participated in the prohibited act in
question.
