OECD Guidelines on Managing Conflict of Interest

The OECD Guidelines on Managing Conflict of Interest provide recommendations for organizations to identify, disclose, and handle situations where personal interests could improperly influence their work or decisions. The goal is to ensure transparency, fairness, and integrity by preventing personal interests from interfering with professional responsibilities. This involves clear policies, ongoing staff training, and transparent disclosures so that decisions are made based on merit and the organization's best interests, not personal gains. Essentially, they help organizations maintain trust and accountability by managing conflicts in a responsible and ethical manner.
