National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (Ukrainian: Національне Антикорупційне Бюро України, НАБУ) or NABU is a Ukrainian law enforcement anti-corruption agency which investigates corruption in Ukraine and prepares cases for prosecution.^[6] It has investigatory powers but cannot indict suspects.^[7] Only agency findings passed to the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office become a part of criminal cases.^[7]

The agency was established in 2014 after its predecessor, the National Anti-Corruption Committee (Ukrainian: Національний антикорупційний комітет) was considered a failure.^{[citation needed]} The bureau was created on the request of the International Monetary Fund.

The agency is set to employ 700 people.^[3] Its first 70 detectives started work on 1 October 2015.^[8]

The agency's government funding is mandated under American and European Union aid programs.^[7] It has an evidence-sharing agreement with the FBI.^[7]

The agency's values are: integrity, courage, determination and commitment.[1] These values are reflected in NABU's own appointments policy.^[9]

The Ukrainian government also employs the National Agency on Corruption Prevention which works to prevent corruption by monitoring government officials' lifestyles.^[10]
