The authors note that only state efforts in the fight against corruption is clearly not enough, we need a synergy of cooperation with business and civil society. Moreover, the business community is, in fact, most interested in the fight against corruption part of the society. Therefore, within this community its own anti-corruption standards of conduct and conflict of interest resolution, prepared in accordance with the current global recommendations are developed and adopted. For example, the anti-corruption charter of the Russian business has been acting for several years in the country, which is highly appreciated by the state and the global community. The charter gained the status of a methodological center, where the tools of self-regulation of the anti-corruption activity of the Russian companies are developed.
