The Council of Europe, based on the work of its Group of States against Corruption (GRECO), has recognised FIFA's ongoing efforts to reform the transfer system, stating that the soon‑to‑be‑operational FIFA Clearing House "will represent a milestone in achieving comprehensiveness, transparency and integrity of the transfer system for football players around the world".
The FIFA Transfer System Reform - Analysis and Recommendations report prepared by Drago Kos, former GRECO President and current President of the OECD Anti‑bribery Working Group in International Business Transactions, states that "the simplification of methods for the calculation of training rewards and their channelling through the FIFA Clearing House might significantly improve the incomes of clubs at lower levels of competition".
