The Bosnia and Herzegovina 2013 Progress Report points out that “Complex connections between political actors, business and the media are putting democratic institutions and procedures at risk and making the detection of corrupt practices more difficult.” Bosnia and Herzegovina is at an early stage in the fight against corruption. Corruption remains widespread, with an insufficient track record of investigation and prosecution in high-profile cases that have a negative impact on society and the economy.

This reportage, published by web portal bljesak.info, explores how the judiciary currently suffers from a complex institutional structure and a lack of harmonisation between different institutions within the judiciary, and how the EU integration process could help to strengthen the incentive structures in order to bring about a greater reduction in the level of corruption in BiH.
