Economic Development Indices Questions
The Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI) is a measure used to assess the perceived levels of corruption in countries around the world. It is compiled annually by Transparency International, an international non-governmental organization. The CPI ranks countries on a scale from 0 to 100, with 0 indicating high levels of perceived corruption and 100 indicating low levels of perceived corruption. The index is based on various sources and surveys that capture the opinions of experts and business leaders regarding corruption in the public sector. The CPI is widely used by governments, organizations, and researchers to understand and compare corruption levels across different countries and regions.
