Bribe Payers Index (BPI)

The Bribe Payers Index (BPI) measures how likely companies from different countries are to engage in paying bribes when doing business abroad. It helps identify which countries' companies are perceived as more or less prone to corruption in international transactions. A higher BPI score indicates that companies from that country are less involved in bribery, reflecting stronger business integrity. Conversely, a lower score suggests a greater tendency towards corrupt practices. The BPI provides insight for governments, businesses, and watchdog organizations to address and reduce corruption risks globally.
