The really harmful and difficult to curb corruption is the widespread friendship corruption that doesn't meet the public eye. This according to Helena Sundén, Secretary General of the Anti-Corruption Institute (IMM).
Helena Sundén - An easy first step is to talk about the risk of friendship corruption and act accordingly.
- My firm opinion is that it has happened a lot these last few years in this particular area, says Helena Sundén.
Helena Sundén - To proceed with the matter is a clear indication that these issues are taken very seriously.
Helena Sundén - A dinner or lunch may be in accordance with regulations, but there is a limit to how much a decision maker may be gifted for it not to be considered a benefit.
