The third SEE Good Governance Report warns that local companies, especially SOEs, benefit from non-competitive municipal budget funding. At the same time, citizens and CSOs in SEE are rarely involved in local government finance decision-making. There is a significant abuse of discretion in transfers for partisan purposes, while integrity provisions at the municipal level are often vague and target low-level civil servants. In addition, public procurement is highly susceptible to corruption in SEE due to the large amounts involved.
