Summary/Abstract: The competitiveness of institutional mechanisms for monitoring and controlling anticorruption policies in Bulgaria compared to third countries is an important indicator of the effectiveness of public administration and the level of public trust. Bulgaria has a stable regulatory framework and institutional structure aimed at preventing, investigating, and sanctioning corrupt practices. However, compared to a number of third countries, the country faces difficulties related to insufficient coordination between institutions, limited transparency of processes, and delayed implementation of anti-corruption measures. In an international context, a number of countries outside the European Union have managed to implement more flexible and effective control approaches through integrated anti-corruption bodies, digitization of administrative processes, and broader citizen participation. To increase its competitiveness, Bulgaria needs to strengthen its institutional capacity, promote the independence of control bodies, and adapt successful international practices to the national context. A key factor for sustainable progress is the creation of a transparent and accountable governance environment based on trust and effective interaction between the state, civil society, and international partners. Improving these mechanisms will enable Bulgaria to achieve a higher level of effectiveness and trust in the fight against corruption on the international stage.
