The Conference of International Investigators

Founded in 1999, the Conference of International Investigators (CII) is the leading forum for investigators from international organizations to share experiences, address integrity challenges, and exchange best practices in combating fraud, corruption, staff misconduct, and other wrongdoing.
CII brings together investigative professionals from across the globe to discuss strategic, technical, and operational issues, strengthen cooperation among participating organizations, and promote professional excellence. Through its annual conferences and published resources, CII continues to foster innovation, collegiality, and integrity in the international investigative community.

General Principles

CII has developed a set of general principles and guidelines that establish common standards for conducting investigations. They provide participating organizations with a shared framework for professional practice, while also serving as a valuable reference for non-participating organizations seeking to strengthen their own investigative work.

Annual Conferences

Each year, CII brings together its participating organizations for an annual conference—an interactive forum where investigators connect, exchange ideas, tackle integrity challenges, explore emerging trends, and share proven practices. These gatherings foster collaboration, strengthen professional networks, and inspire innovative approaches to investigative work.

Information Sharing Framework

CII has established a framework that enables participating organizations to share information responsibly and efficiently, helping strengthen cooperation and support effective investigative outcomes.
