Abstract Text While recent literature on organizational corruption started to address the rising and heterogeneous challenges for internationally operating companies in a globalized economy, our knowledge is so far mostly restricted to large firms. In contrast, we know little about the role, motives and challenges of internationally operating small and medium enterprises (SMEs)1 as regards the global fight against corruption. This study will analyze the implications of firm size in fighting corruption by analyzing when, how & why large and small MNCs face and react to demands in their institutional environment for transparency, compliance and integrity. I use the metaphor of the “anti-corruption radar” to refer to the exposure of an organization to such demands. I will further outline the crucial role of societal actors to continuously uphold, redefine and expand this radar in the fight against corruption.
