Zero tolerance for corruption: ESBU submitted information to NACP for verification
The Economic Security Bureau of Ukraine consistently implements a policy of zero tolerance for corruption and systematically reviews potential facts of violation of anti-corruption legislation, principles of integrity, and ethical conduct among its employees.
Specifically, during an interview, journalists raised questions regarding the financial status of certain ESBU employees and their relatives. The employees informed the internal security unit about the issues raised during the interview.
To prevent the spread of unverified information in the public domain, the ESBU internal security unit has initiated a corresponding review. The National Agency on Corruption Prevention has been informed of potential violations of financial control requirements by the employees.
The NACP is the sole state body authorized to verify the declarations of officials. The agency analyzes the accuracy of submitted declarations, the consistency of income and assets, potential signs of illicit enrichment, conflicts of interest, and compliance with legally established restrictions.
The Economic Security Bureau of Ukraine emphasizes that it responds openly to any information regarding potential violations and is interested in a full and impartial investigation. At the same time, any conclusions or allegations must be based exclusively on the results of an official review and established facts.
As a reminder, the Economic Security Bureau of Ukraine responds to every report of potential misconduct by its employees. All information is subject to mandatory verification.
