Turkey's anti-corruption policy is a dynamic system of legal, institutional and international mechanisms aimed at reducing corruption risks and improving public administration. In the past two decades, Turkey has carried out large-scale reforms in the field of criminal and administrative legislation, public service, audit of public finances and digitalization of management. At the same time, the country is implementing international obligations under the United Nations Convention against Corruption, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development Convention against Bribery of Foreign Officials, the mechanisms of the Group of States against Corruption and the negotiation process with the European Union. The study is due to the purpose of a comprehensive analysis of Turkey's anti-corruption strategy from the standpoint of national legislation, public administration institutions and international standards. Particular attention is paid to the evolution of legal mechanisms, the role of digitalization, the results of monitoring international organizations and the degree of implementation of international requirements. The paper uses methods of comparative legal analysis, institutional approach and study of regulatory acts. The results reveal the strengths and weaknesses of Turkey's anti-corruption model and outline areas for further improvement.
