Modern Anti-Corruption Tools in the Sphere of State and Municipal Finance

Abstract

This work was aimed at forming an understanding of the modern tools for influencing corruption in the field of state and municipal finance. In the context of the active development of digital technologies in the field of state and municipal administration, new opportunities are opening up in understanding and assessing corruption processes, tracking and suppressing them. The main ways to neutralize this phenomenon are to reduce bureaucratic processes associated with obtaining managerial decisions, as well as to ensure transparency in the activities of the state and municipal apparatus. These measures are being implemented with varying degrees of efficiency in the field of budgetary relations, as well as relations with the participation of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation and customs authorities. The most effective implementation of anti-corruption activities is carried out within the framework of customs structures. Various information resources and databases have been introduced into the practice of budgetary activities, but they are not fully focused on combating corruption. The development and application of digital technologies will make it possible to transfer the implementation of the state anti-corruption policy to the level of precautionary and preventive impact, although it is quite obvious that this is possible subject to the political will to solve this problem at the national level. Anti-corruption activities are often replaced by their imitation, which is also associated with a low degree of confidence on the part of the business community and the population in such events. State support is needed for anti-corruption public organizations.
