Abstract
Recommends that adoption by national governments of legislative, executive, and other measures that:

3 facilitate international co-operation for the purpose of deterring corrupt practices in the conduct of international business;
4 deny the tax deductibility of bribes to foreign officials in the conduct of international business, and
5 would require multilateral lending institutions to adopt, implement, and enforce effective measurers designed to deter corrupt practices in the conduct of international business.
