"A clear line on corruption"
HOCHTIEF has had an active part in the fight against corruption for many years. This includes
membership in Transparency International (TI), the only non-governmental organization to
prosecute an effective and sustained campaign against corruption on a global scale.
TI campaigns in nearly 100 countries around the world, bringing government, industry and
civil society together at a common table.
In cooperation with TI, HOCHTIEF works to uphold transparency and integrity within the Group and fair conditions for competition in the construction industry. Fighting corruption effectively over the long term requires greater awareness of the topic in business and society.
Peter von Blomberg, Deputy Chairman of Transparency International Germany, and Hartmut
Paulsen, attorney and HOCHTIEF Representative Director, discussed about the possible causes
of corruption, the measures that go to make up a systematic anticorruption policy, and their
implementation at HOCHTIEF.
