The article contains a detailed comparative analysis of anti-corruption legislation in countries belonging to the Romano-Germanic legal family. It highlights and discusses the main approaches to the formation of the regulatory framework for corruption, as well as the common features and peculiarities of legislative regulation in various jurisdictions of continental law. Considerable attention is paid to the structure of anti-corruption legislation, which demonstrates a codified approach and hierarchy in the construction of regulatory acts. Institutional mechanisms ensure the implementation of anti-corruption legislation, including specialised anti-corruption bodies, their powers and interaction with other elements of the law enforcement system. The experience of Germany, France, Italy, Spain and other European countries in creating effective organisational structures to combat corruption is analysed. The results of the study identify the main trends in the further strengthening of anti-corruption legislation in countries of the Romano-Germanic legal family. These trends are defined as strengthening the preventive component in further development, digitisation of control mechanisms and expansion of international cooperation.
