# Ukraine establishes the National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU)

Date: 2015

After the 2014 EuroMaidan revolution, Ukraine's parliament adopted the law on the National Anti-Corruption Bureau on 14 October 2014; President Poroshenko signed the founding decree on 16 April 2015 and NABU's first 70 detectives began work on 1 October 2015. NABU, alongside SAPO, NACP, the [High Anti-Corruption Court](/organizations/high-anti-corruption-court) and the ProZorro procurement platform, formed a new institutional architecture demanded by the IMF and EU.
