Corruption Perceptions Index
The Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI) is a measure that ranks countries based on how corrupt their public sectors are perceived to be. It collects opinions from experts and business leaders about corruption in government and public institutions. The index scores countries from 0 (highly corrupt) to 100 (very clean). By providing a clear snapshot of perceived corruption levels, the CPI helps to understand the integrity of governance in different nations and highlights areas needing reform. It is widely used by policymakers, researchers, and the public to gauge anti-corruption efforts globally.
