The General Inspectorate of Finance (IGF) celebrates 19 years of existence. Present at a ceremony held at Karibe on March 17, 2025, Prime Minister Alix Didier Fils-Aimé reiterated his commitment to the fight against corruption and sound public management. A Taskforce against corruption is envisioned.
Under the theme « Towards a double decade of control, commitment, and the fight against corruption for healthier public management », the celebration brought together several influential figures, including the President of the Superior Court of Accounts and Administrative Disputes (CSCCA), representatives of the inter-institutional anti-corruption Task Force, as well as institutional partners and members of the Diplomatic Corps.
According to the note, this ceremony highlighted the continuous commitment of Haitian authorities to strengthen transparency and combat corruption.
On the occasion, the Prime Minister praised the essential role of the IGF in controlling public finances, recalling that « no finance deserves the epithet of public without inspection, without transparent and effective governance ».
Highlighting the anniversary theme, Alix Didier Fils-Aimé commended the IGF's determination to continue its efforts for more transparent public management, strengthened integrity, and better management of public resources, which are essential for the country's development.
The head of the Prime Minister's Office also highlighted the inter-institutional anti-corruption Task Force, a collaborative project between five crucial institutions to intensify the fight against corruption: the Ministry of Economy and Finance (MEF), the Anti-Corruption Unit (ULCC), the National Commission for Public Procurement (CNMP), the Central Financial Intelligence Unit (UCREF), and the Haitian National Police.
While Haiti faces a surge in corruption even at the highest level of the state, according to a 2024 Transparency International report, the country continues to be mired in corruption in the global ranking. Its score is 16 out of 100 on the Corruption Perception Index (CPI), placing it 168th out of 180 countries.
