About Us

The Anti-Corruption Data Collective brings together leading journalists, data analysts, academics and policy advocates to expose transnational corruption flows and push for policy change using the advocacy reach of ACDC partners.

The Collective draws from experts and participating organizations with on-the-ground networks of local non-profit partners and journalists in more than 100 countries around the world. We leverage both data and expertise to target specific vehicles for hiding and laundering ill-gotten gains.

In 2021 and 2022, our specific aim is to expose wrongdoing and risk areas in the real estate and private investment industries within target jurisdictions. Our investigations can then be used as a platform for advocating for relevant changes in law and practice by our advocacy partners.
