Summary

The Governance Diagnostic (GD) Report is prepared by IMF staff at the request of the Haitian authorities. Informed by political economy analysis, the GD discusses the nature and severity of corruption, its relevance to Haiti’s fragility, and its impact on the anti-corruption, anti-money laundering frameworks and the rule of law (especially judicial integrity). It also discusses governance weaknesses and corruption vulnerabilities in the fiscal governance and financial sector oversight. These governance weaknesses and vulnerabilities appear in the context of endemic violence that has undermined the legitimacy of state institutions. The GD Report proposes a set of time-bound reform measures aimed at strengthening economic governance, rule of law and reducing corruption vulnerabilities.
