Abstract

This study addresses the concept of conflict of interest and distinguishes between it, corruption, and conflict of duties. This study also clarifies cases of conflicts of interest in public procurement mutating into corruption. In addition to a statement of the risks of conflicts of interest in the various stages of public procurement, this study used the descriptive method to describe and analyse the concept of conflict of interest and the difference between it and corruption and conflict of tasks. The analytical method was also used to explore the relationship between public procurement and conflict of interest and to identify cases of conflicts of interest and the mechanism for preventing their transformation into the crime of corruption. The comparative approach was also used to compare the Egyptian and UAE constitutions and laws in dealing with conflicts of interest in public procurement.
