ACCOUNTABILITY, INTEGRITY

AND ANTI-CORRUPTION

We review the suitability of prospective clients, investigate allegations of fraud, corruption and misconduct and address complaints from those adversely affected by EBRD operations.

By fostering transparency and accountability in the countries where we invest, we support the successful transition to a market economy.

The Project Complaint Mechanism (PCM) is the EBRD’s new accountability mechanism that has replaced the previous Independent Recourse Mechanism (IRM). PCM assesses and reviews complaints about Bank-financed projects. It gives civil society organisations and local groups and individuals that may be directly and adversely affected by a Bank project a means of raising complaints or grievances with the Bank, independently from banking operations.
