Join us in Beijing, China from November 5–7, 2025, as the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) hosts the 25th Conference of International Investigators (#CII2025). This milestone event will bring together the global investigative community to share practical solutions, debate key issues, and celebrate a quarter-century of collaboration.
Under the theme “Delivering Innovative Investigation Solutions,” #CII2025 will reaffirm CII’s role as an incubator for investigative innovation. The program will explore practical, forward-looking approaches to shared challenges, covering anti-corruption, staff misconduct, and humanitarian investigation issues.
This year introduces dynamic new formats—debates and case studies—to encourage deeper, more interactive discussions. Alongside a robust professional agenda, participants will enjoy cultural activities that showcase Beijing’s heritage.
As CII marks its 25th anniversary, #CII2025 aims to set a new benchmark for collaboration, knowledge-sharing, and innovation in the global investigator community. Visit the 2025 | 25th Conference section for updates and details.
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.
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.
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.
CII has established a framework that enables participating organizations to share information responsibly and efficiently, helping strengthen cooperation and support effective investigative outcomes.

Six volumes of General Principles for conducting core investigative activities that greatly expand on the principles within the CII’s Uniform Principles and Guidelines for Investigations. Endorsed at the 21st CII, these Principles provide more in-depth, principles-based, uniform guidance to investigators and Investigative Offices conducting these six core activities: Intake and Evaluation, Scoping and Planning, collection of Physical and Documentary Evidence, collection of Testimonial Evidence, collection of Digital Evidence and Evidence Analysis and Reporting of Findings.
As supplements to the CII’s Uniform Principles and Guidelines, each paper sets out non-binding principles establishing uniform standards to guide investigators and Investigative Offices undertaking these activities. They are purposely not prescriptive in technical details nor implementing practices. These Principles will also form the basis for a future CII Investigator Credential and CII Investigator training pathways.
