Saudi anti-corruption chief thanks leadership after GlobE Network info-sharing deal

Saudi Arabia signed an information exchange agreement with members of the Global Operational Network of Anti-Corruption Law Enforcement Authorities, known as the GlobE Network, in Vienna. This development was welcomed by Mazin bin Ibrahim Al-Kahmous, President of the Oversight and Anti-Corruption Authority, who praised the Kingdom's leadership for their support of local and international initiatives aimed at combating corruption.

The agreement, signed at the network's seventh general meeting held at the United Nations headquarters, aims to enhance international cooperation and facilitate the secure and rapid exchange of information, thereby aiding in the detection, investigation, and prosecution of corruption crimes and the recovery of stolen assets. Al-Kahmous emphasized that the Authority benefits greatly from the Kingdom's leadership and highlighted the country's commitment to bolstering information sharing and international collaboration, as demonstrated by its active participation in the International Association of Anti-Corruption Authorities and the GlobE Network.
