“…Corruption is a significant problem that affects societies globally, and efficient anticorruption investigations are necessary to combat it (D avid- Barrett and Fazekas, 2020;Prabowo, 2020;Kobets et al, 2021). Scholars have studied the efficiency of anti-corruption investigations and have identified challenges, including the complexity of corruption schemes, lack of program resources and capacity, presence of political interference, lack of transparency and accountability, weak legal frameworks and parallel corruption in the judiciary.…”

Purpose This study aims to examine the connection between the integrity of records and the effectiveness of anti-corruption investigations. The objective is to determine how the quality of records affects the efficiency of anti-corruption investigations. Design/methodology/approach This study uses a qualitative, exploratory case study approach, with data collected through interviews with 15 anti-corruption investigators in 2020 in Nigeria. The data were analysed using thematic analysis. Findings The results indicate that the efficiency of anti-corruption investigations depends on the quality of the evidence. Proper recordkeeping, which maintains the integrity of records, is crucial for efficient anti-corruption investigations. Inadequate recordkeeping practices that do not adhere to the lifecycle concept are often driven by corruption and can significantly hinder the efficiency of anti-corruption investigations by causing delays in obtaining crucial evidence. Originality/value From a records management perspective, this study highlights the impact of unreliable evidence on every corruption investigation effort and the motives behind rendering the process unproductive. Accountability forums must enforce adherence to proper recordkeeping procedures to ensure the desired investigative outcomes with minimal resources, time and effort to combat corruption.

Bribery case at PT. Garuda Indonesia is a cross-jurisdictional corruption case involving several countries. The purpose of this research is to analyze the international cooperation carried out by the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) in the investigation of bribery cases at PT. Garuda Indonesia. The research method used is a qualitative approach with a case study method. The data analysis used is the theory of international cooperation in dealing with corruption, jurisdictional theory, and the concept of transnational crime. The results of his research show that the bribery case at PT. Garuda involves multiple jurisdictions, namely: Indonesia, United Kingdom, Singapore, Hong Kong, France, and Canada. KPK-SFO-CPIB international cooperation process shows a new format of cooperation because it is carried out by the anti-corruption agency with a parallel investigations format. KPK cooperates with the agency through the MoU and MLA mechanisms referring to international instruments, namely the United Nations Convention Against Corruption (UNCAC). Even though the platform has been created, there are still many challenges and obstacles due to differences in the legal system, language and time. KPK encountered problems when it wanted to cooperate with Hong Kong's ICAC, Canada's RCMP, and France's PNF. The keys to the success of KPK in this collaboration are the diplomatic approach, speed of coordination, accuracy in strategies of communication, and commitment, as well as trust and adjustment of cooperation mechanisms according to the standards of each country.
