Prof Slagjana Taseva, IACA Dean, Key Note address - Budapest conference

Complexity of the conflict of interest cases and their human aspect Professor Slagjana Taseva, Dean and Executive Secretary of IACA participated to the 2025 ENPE Annual Conference held on October 16th 2025 in Budapest with the title: From policy to practice: Effective conflict of interest control and oversight to combat corruption. While presenting examples and cases from her personal experience Professor Taseva explained that Effective conflict of interest resolution requires knowledge and attention. Every case is specific and it should not be an automatic process. Checking only key words and ticking the boxes is not sufficient. Every case requires a thorough, in-depth analysis on every single fact in order to make sure that we are not making a mistake. Because we need always to have in mind that on the other side we are dealing with a person that has family and carrier. This should also be bared in mind when considering using od Artificial Intelligence in the process for checking conflict of interest.
