The International Corruption Unit (ICU) was not formed until 2015, so we do not hold any information prior to this date.

We are unable to disclose the number of staff employed in the ICU as that information is operationally sensitive. However, as of March 2024 the percentage of staff in the ICU, funded by the FCDO UK Action Against Corruption Programme, is 76%.

This is broadly comparable over the programme’s funding period.
