El Salvador Strengthens Fight Against Corruption Through Digitization and Innovation

Vice President Félix Ulloa reaffirmed the government’s commitment to transparency and modern governance during the discussion “Advances and Challenges of Oversight in El Salvador”, organized by the Court of Accounts of the Republic (CCR).

Speaking as rector of the Higher School of Innovation in Public Administration (ESIAP), Ulloa emphasized that digitization, innovation, and transparency are essential tools to combat corruption. He underscored the alliance between ESIAP and the CCR as a sign of El Salvador’s determination to modernize public management.

Among the advances highlighted were the distribution of electronic devices in schools, the implementation of digital signatures and electronic invoicing, and the recent approval of the Digital Assets Law, all of which represent milestones in El Salvador’s digital transformation.

Walter Sosa, presiding judge of the CCR, noted the institution’s active role in supporting these changes. “This supreme entity not only supports the country’s transformations, but is also a key player in their implementation,” Sosa stated.

During the event, the CCR presented the Compendium of Administrative Regulations, a document consolidating 35 provisions including constitutional norms, laws, regulations, and codes.

The meeting gathered high-level representatives such as Claudia de Larín, Executive Director of ESIAP; Attorney General René Escobar; RNPN President Fernando Velasco; Minister of Labor Rolando Castro; and members of the diplomatic corps, reflecting the broad institutional support for El Salvador’s modernization efforts.
