For nearly two decades bilateral and multilateral development agencies have been concerned with the negative impact of corruption on their aid programmes and projects. Aid is particularly vulnerable to corruption and misuse in countries that are poorly-governed and/or recovering from natural and political disasters. The rapid increase in aid and other transfers during the last decade has increased the size of the
target. The move towards budget support during this period has
increased the vulnerability of recurrent budgets to corruption and waste.

ENDEMIC CORRUPTION, STATE FAILURES AND UNDERDEVELOPMENT IN SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA: CAN WESTERN DONOR AGENCIES FIND ALLIES IN UNSTABLE GOVERNANCE ENVIRONMENTS?

From a theoretical microeconomic point of view, protecting fund that a principal (the donor) lent to an agent (the recipient) for an investment is a simple agency model problem. The asymmetry of information give a discretionary power to the agent, and it is very costly to monitor and to sanction the agent behaviours. The more complex and large is the investment (money to strengthening a multidimensional governance agenda, like in Kaufmann) the more the control and the evaluation of it effects will be difficult. By the way, the money you spent in the monitoring process will reduce the amount of the investment and you will find the classical rule of the regulation process: marginal cost must equal the marginal benefit. So prevention and repression must be economically efficient. From a
theoretical macroeconomic point of view the fund is a debt coming from the international saving and the output of the investment must be sufficient to reimburse
the loan and the interest.

O Conselho de Prevenção da Corrupção vem preencher uma lacuna em
Portugal. Faltava uma entidade independente que se debruçasse de uma forma metódica sobre a problemática da prevenção da corrupção.
Não se trata de mais uma entidade que fiscalize ou combata directamente os fenómenos de corrupção. Essa tarefa formidável cabe às polícias de investigação, Tribunais e Ministério Público.
