The National Agency on Corruption Prevention (Ukrainian: Національне агентство з питань запобігання корупції, Nacionaľne ahenctvo z pytań zapobihanńa korupciji) or NACP is a national anti-corruption agency of the Ukrainian government which is responsible for shaping and implementing anti-corruption policy, while creating an environment conducive to corruption prevention.[3] It has been functioning since 2016.[1]
The agency is one of the three anti-corruption pillars of Ukraine, created after the Euromaidan revolution, along with the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU) and the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office (SAPO).
In contrast to the NABU, which is a law-enforcement institution, the NACP has a preventive function. As such, the Agency develops regulations that help prevent corruption and ensures compliance with them.
The candidates of the 2019 Ukrainian presidential election were required submit a declaration of income for the year preceding the year of the beginning of the election.[4] These documents will be scrutinized by the National Agency on Corruption Prevention who will subsequently publish the results of the audit.[4]
As one of its major services, the agency runs an anti-corruption portal.[5] The agency maintains a list called International Sponsors of War with companies they deem contribute to the Russian war effort in Ukraine.[6][7]
