Joint-stock commercial bank "Microcreditbank" is carrying out large-scale work aimed at preventing corruption, preventing conflicts of interest, and ensuring the rule of law. In particular, the Bank's Management Board has developed and approved roadmaps, control plans, and training programs for improving the anti-corruption system, and their implementation is under strict control.
During the past period, training seminars were held with the participation of specialists from the Prosecutor's Office, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Ministry of Justice, and the Central Bank on the essence and significance of the laws "On Combating Corruption," "On Conflict of Interest," and "On Banking Secrecy." More than 100 employees improved their qualifications according to the international standard ISO 37001:2025 and received a certificate. 75 newly hired employees were also trained in anti-corruption knowledge and skills.
The bank is analyzing potential corruption risks and working to eliminate them. State procurement processes are being studied, and work is underway to create the "ANTISOR-STOP" module, which automates the identification of conflicts of interest in procurement and lending processes.
During the hiring process, 124 candidates were examined, and 10 were rejected due to negative information. During the study of the conflict of interest, 12 cases were identified and eliminated. More than 90 appeals received from bank employees and clients were considered, and measures were taken within the framework of the legislation.
In accordance with the order of the Chairman of the Management Board dated September 10 of this year, the second Wednesday of each month was designated as "Anti-Corruption Day," and the practice of studying legislative acts among employees was established. The tasks outlined in the "Roadmap" approved by the Central Bank and the Anti-Corruption Agency are being implemented on time.
By the end of the year, it is planned to prepare the Karakalpakstan and Khorezm regional branches for certification according to the ISO-37001 standard, train 65 employees in the "Virtual Anti-Corruption Academy," and completely revise the bank's internal regulatory documents. Work will also continue on strengthening an intolerant attitude towards corruption among employees and clients through seminars, round tables, and anonymous surveys.
