Based on reports from the European Commission and international organizations regarding the fight against corruption in Montenegro, it's evident that the current situation in this realm does not align with the country's overall progress and its priority of European integration. Despite some legislative advancements in regulating anti-corruption efforts, Montenegro's laws still fall short of international standards, with implementation remaining at an unacceptably low level. Notably, there have been no accusations or sanctions for corruption against high-ranking government officials in Montenegro. One of the primary reasons for this state of affairs is the overly complex system of institutions tasked with combating corruption and their inadequate coordination. These institutions possess limited competencies and authority, and their appointment and funding mechanisms lack the independence necessary for effective action, resulting in underutilized powers. Therefore, to yield tangible results in the fight against corruption, it's imperative to redefine the institutional framework governing this endeavor. This entails ensuring the independence, empowerment, and adequate resourcing of these institutions. The aim of this study is to elucidate the current organization and activities of anti-corruption institutions in Montenegro while proposing alternative models for the institutional framework. These models advocate for the transformation of existing institutions into stronger, more independent bodies with the capacity and resources to effectively combat corruption.
