Anti-Corruption Investigation & Asset Recovery
Investigate, prosecute, and recover stolen assets.
The executive challenge
The problem this program solves
Donor-funded anti-corruption investigation pilots succeed in three districts and fail at scale, and the system cannot explain why one works and the other does not. Reforms that ignore incentives do not fail loudly; they fade into familiar underperformance and a new strategy document. In five days you learn why well-funded anti-corruption investigation underperforms, and you rehearse the cabinet conversation that changes it.

The IPAT Course Standard
The five-day journey
Each day is a deliberate progression in managerial capability — from strategic context, to analytical frameworks, to applied practice, to executive judgement under pressure, to a capstone that produces something your organisation keeps.
IPAT Signature Case™
The Subsidy on the Cabinet Table
A subsidy now consumes more than the combined health and education capital budgets of a devolved county government. Two reform attempts ended in protests and retreat; a compensation scheme is possible but untested — and the anti-corruption investigation analysis exists for neither.
Your decision: Recommend the removal design, the compensation architecture and the political sequencing — with the cabinet watching.
IPAT Data Lab™
A a devolved county government cannot trace its spending to outcomes citizens feel.
Dataset: Synthetic expenditure and outcome panel for a devolved county government, with leakage and coverage gaps.
Your task: Trace money to outcomes, find the value-for-money gaps, and design the dashboard that changes decisions.
An expenditure-to-outcome dashboard and findings memo.
Data → Analysis → Decision, not Data → Code → Certificate
