Corruption Perceptions Index - 2023

Corruption Perceptions Index

Transparency International yearly publishes the Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI) which ranks 180 countries and territories by their perceived levels of public sector corruption, according to experts and business people.

Definition of Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI)

"The CPI scores and ranks countries/territories based on how corrupt a country’s public sector is perceived to be by experts and business executives. It is a composite index, a combination of 13 surveys and assessments of corruption, collected by a variety of reputable institutions. The CPI is the most widely used indicator of corruption worldwide. The CPI uses a scale from 0 to 100. 100 being very clean and 0 highly corrupt."

The three best performing countries are Denmark, Finland and New Zealand.
