Monaco has announced a new three-year strategy aimed at strengthening transparency, accountability and ethical standards across the highest levels of public administration.
The 2026–2028 plan, adopted by the Government, focuses on preventing corruption among senior executive officials, while extending oversight measures to the Secretary of State for Justice and certain senior positions within the Prince’s Household.
The initiative forms part of the Principality’s broader efforts to align with international governance standards and follows recommendations issued by the Council of Europe’s anti-corruption body, the Group of States against Corruption (GRECO), in its 2024 evaluation of Monaco.
Developed by a steering committee established earlier this year, the strategy sets out five key priorities designed to reinforce integrity in public life. These include expanding ethical supervision across senior government roles, promoting a stronger culture of integrity among decision-makers, increasing transparency surrounding executive activities, introducing enhanced protections for whistleblowers, and strengthening safeguards against conflicts of interest in public procurement.
The programme is accompanied by a detailed action plan that will see a series of legal, administrative and operational measures introduced progressively over the next three years. Authorities say the framework will remain adaptable, allowing future adjustments in response to evolving international standards and recommendations from oversight bodies.
Government officials described the strategy as an important step in modernising Monaco’s public institutions and further strengthening confidence in the Principality’s governance framework. The plan also reflects Monaco’s ongoing commitment to meeting international expectations in the areas of transparency, ethics and anti-corruption policy.
Implementation of the measures will be monitored regularly by the steering committee, which will oversee progress and assess the effectiveness of the reforms throughout the 2026–2028 period.
