AAMEG (2015) Statement on Facilitation Payments

AAMEG and its members are fully committed to the eradication of facilitation payments in business dealings in the countries of Africa. However, in order to achieve this challenging objective, there must be a coordinated effort by all stakeholders to develop a reform process that has realistic timeframes and achievable interim milestones. Any externally driven attempt to apply such a legislative change in one giant step across the 54 countries on the African continent, will not in the opinion of AAMEG, succeed.
