Excerpts from the Procurement and Consultant Guidelines

Until May 2004, the fraud and corruption provisions were contained in paragraphs 1.15(a) and 1.25(a) of the Procurement Guidelines and the Consultant Guidelines, respectively. Revisions to the Guidelines in May 2004 resulted in a new paragraph numbering of 1.14(a) and 1.22(a) respectively. In October 2006, the provisions were again revised, although the relevant paragraph numbering remained as 1.14(a) and 1.22(a) respectively.

 

The relevant excerpts of the Guidelines for Procurement under IBRD Loans and IDA Credits prior to May 2004 follow:

 

Fraud and Corruption

1.15 It is the Bank’s policy to require that Borrowers (including beneficiaries of Bank loans), as well as bidders/Suppliers/Contractors under Bank-financed contracts, observe the highest standard of ethics during the procurement and execution of such contracts. In pursuance of this policy, the Bank:

(a) defines, for the purposes of this provision, the terms set forth below as follows:

(i) “corrupt practice” means the offering, giving, receiving, or soliciting of any thing of value to influence the action of a public official in the procurement process or in contract execution; and

(ii) “fraudulent practice” means a misrepresentation of facts in order to influence a procurement process or the execution of a contract to the detriment of the Borrower, and includes collusive practices among bidders (prior to or after bid submission) designed to establish bid prices at artificial, non-competitive levels and to deprive the Borrower of the benefits of free and open competition;

 

The relevant excerpts of the Guidelines for the Selection and Employment of Consultants under IBRD Loans and IDA Credits prior to May 2004 follow:
