This assessment received government comments and feedback on the finalised data. These comments have been incorporated into the assessment at the GDI research team’s discretion. Usually the comments received highlight where a bill is in formulation, or has recently passed into law, and this has been missed by the country assessor. Only comments which are grounded in evidence are incorporated into the assessment.
Philippines
Band
C
Corruption risk
Moderate
Institutional resilience to corruption is modest across the Philippines’ defence institutions. Oversight of policy-making and procurement by parliament is particularly weak and transparency remains limited throughout the sector, including with regards to financial management. Nevertheless, corruption risk mitigation is relatively robust in military operations.
