the global corruption index the freedom from corruption index the index of public integrity and the world bank s index of quality of governance 21 22 media outlets frequently use the raw numbers as a yardstick for government performance without clarifying what the numbers mean the local transparency international chapter in bangladesh disowned the index results after a change in methodology caused the country s scores to increase media reported it as an improvement 23 in a 2013 foreign policy article alex cobham argues that the cpi reflects an elite bias in popular perceptions of corruption potentially contributing to a vicious cycle and incentivizing inappropriate policy responses cobham writes the index corrupts perceptions to the extent that it s hard to see a justification for its continuing publication 24 he noted that many of the staff and chapters at transparency international protest internally over concerns about the index the original creator of the index johann graf lambsdorff withdrew from work on the index in 2009 stating that he was no longer available for doing the corruption perceptions index 25 recent econometric analyses that have exploited the existence of natural experiments on the level of corruption and compared the cpi with other subjective indicators have found that while not perfect the cpi is argued to be broadly consistent with one dimensional measures of corruption 26 in the united states many lawyers advise international businesses to consult the cpi when attempting to measure the risk of foreign corrupt practices act violations in different nations this practice has been criticized by the minnesota journal of international law which wrote that since the cpi may be subject to perceptual biases it therefore should not be considered by lawyers to be a measure of actual national corruption risk 27 transparency international also publishes the global corruption barometer which ranks countries by corruption levels using direct surveys instead of perceived expert opinions which has been under criticism for substantial bias from the powerful elite 24 transparency international has warned that a country with a clean cpi score may still be linked to corruption internationally for example while sweden had the 3rd best cpi score in 2015 one of its state owned companies teliasonera was facing allegations of bribery in uzbekistan 28 scoring edit for the current and historical ranking of countries see list of countries by corruption perceptions index as stated by transparency international in the 2023 corruption perceptions index 29 the level of corruption was stagnating at the global level only 28 of the 180 countries measured by the cpi at that time had improved their corruption levels over the last twelve years and 34 countries had significantly worsened no significant change was recorded for 118 countries moreover according to transparency international over 80 percent of the population lived in countries whose cpi score was lower than the global average of 43 and thus corruption remained a problem that affected the majority of people globally among the states with the most significant score decline in the 2023 cpi were authoritarian states such as venezuela as well as established democracies that had been rated high for a long time such as sweden decrease of 7 2023 score 82 or great britain decrease 3 2023 score 71 other countries experiencing sharp declines included sri lanka mongolia gabon guatemala and turkey in contrast the most significant improvements in the 2023 cpi score over the preceding twelve years were recorded by uzbekistan tanzania ukraine ivory coast the dominican republic and kuwait 2025 scores edit below are the scores for each country in the corruption perceptions index for 2025 the scores reflect a country s transparency i e the opposite of corruption 5 legend scores perceived as less corrupt perceived as more corrupt since 2012 100

western europe north america and asia and the pacific tend to top the rankings over the long term this means that these countries are perceived as having a low level of corruption in the public sector these nations also generally have well functioning judicial systems a strong rule of law and political stability all factors that contribute to perceptions of clean governance however while these top ranked countries have strong domestic institutions their commitment to fighting corruption appears to be weak when it comes to their own financial systems and regulations affecting the international environment 31 the cpi doesn t capture transnational corruption so corrupt foreign business practices by companies from these countries don t affect their cpi scores the example of the netherlands highlights this issue despite a high cpi score the netherlands has a poor record of prosecuting companies that bribe foreign officials to win contracts as seen in the nigerian oil bribery case 32 the report exporting corruption 2022 33 which assesses foreign bribery enforcement in 43 of the 44 signatories to the oecd anti bribery convention as well as china zao hong kong india and singapore reinforces this concern it found a significant decline in foreign bribery enforcement only two out of 47 countries are now in the active enforcement category other key findings were that no country is exempt from bribery by its nationals and related money laundering moreover according to the report weaknesses remain in legal frameworks and enforcement systems are not adequately disclosed by most countries information on enforcement victim compensation is rare and international cooperation is increasing but still faces significant obstacles this calls for a more comprehensive approach to tackling corruption addressing both domestic and international aspects see also edit democracy indices financial secrecy index global peace index list of freedom indices references edit 1995 cpi
