Executive summary
In May 2015, the Mexican Congress passed a series of governance reforms to enhance public sector accountability, integrity and transparency. These measures, which in some cases involved reforms to the country’s Constitution, re-drew the national institutional map to advance these principles through the creation of the National Anti- Corruption System and the National Transparency System. The reforms also provide a legislative foundation for the National Auditing System (Sistema Nacional de Fiscalización, or SNF) to contribute to good governance and accountability in Mexico.
