Norway Assessment
Norway Country BriefNorway faces a low risk of corruption in its defence sector. External oversight of the policies, activities, budgets and acquisitions of defence institutions, by parliament and audit bodies, is strong. Financial transparency is well-established, as are anti-corruption safeguards for personnel. Nevertheless, whistleblowing systems could be strengthened, as could corruption monitoring on operations.
